Correct Answer: 19th


Solution : Given:
Tanvir is 6 positions behind Rakesh in a class of 42 students. Tanvir is ranked 18th from the bottom.

Rakesh's position from last is (18 + 6) = 24
The rank of Rakesh from the start is 42 – 24 + 1 = 19

So, Rakesh is 19th from the start. Hence, the third option is correct.
