Question

In a row of a few students, P was standing 17th^{th}​ from the left end and 23rd^{rd}​ from the right end. If Q was standing exactly in the middle of the row, what was his position from the extreme left end? Assume that the students were facing the north.

A.

22nd^{nd}​​

B.

18th^{th}​​

C.

19th^{th}​​

D.

20th^{th}​​

Correct option is D

​​P is 17th from the left end and 23rd from the right end.
Q is in the middle of the row.
The total number of students = 17 + 23 − 1=39 (subtracting 1 because we counted P twice).​
The middle position in a row of 39 students is the 20th position.
Thus, correct option is (d).
