Correct Answer: 63


Solution : Given:
Sunil's position from left = 20th
Deepak's position from right = 36th

After interchanging their positions, Sunil's position from left = 28, and Sunil's position from right = 36

So, the total number of boys in a row = Sunil's position from left + Sunil's position from right – 1
The total number of boys in a row = 28 + 36 – 1
= 64 – 1
= 63

So, there are a total of 63 boys in a row. Hence, the second option is correct.
