​In a queue, Mahima is 28^th from the front end and Anshul is 22^nd from the rear end, and there are 5 people between them. How many people are their in the queue if Anshul is standing somewhere behind Mahima in the queue?

Let the total number of people be N.

Mahima is 28th from the front.

Anshul is 22nd from the rear.

There are 5 people between them.

The position of Anshul from the front = N−22+1=N−21

The difference between Mahima and Anshul’s positions is 6 (since there are 5 people between them).

Therefore, N−21−28=6

N - 21 - 28 = 6

N=6+21+28=55

Thus, correct option is (a).
