Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: 61
Solution :
Rahul's rank from the top = 11
Rahul's rank from the bottom = 47
Total number of passed students = Rahul's rank from the top + Rahul's rank from the bottom – 1
= 11 + 47 – 1 = 57
So, the total number of passed students = 57
Number of students who didn't appear for the exam = 3
Number of failed students = 1
Total number of students = Number of passed students + number of failed students + Number of students who didn't appear for the exam
= 57 + 3 + 1 = 61
So, the total number of students is 61. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
