Correct option is D

Given:

total number of student =48

Rashmi rank is 15th from top.

in top 15th there are five girl.

Solution:

let number of boys =2x

number of girls =x

total number of student = 2x+x =48

3x=48

x=16

total number of boys = 32

 total number of girls = 16 

according to question -

 number of student in top 15rank =15

number of girls in top 15 = 5+rasmi

so number of boys in top 15=15-6=9

number of boys below rank = total boys - number of boys in top15

                                           =32-9

                                         =23
