Ranking

Easy

Sonam is 8 ranks ahead of Soniya who ranks twenty-sixth in a class of 45. What is Sonam's rank from the last?

✅ Correct Option: 4

Soniya ranks 26th in the class.

Sonam is 8 ranks ahead of Soniya, meaning Sonam has a better rank (lower rank number).

Sonam's rank from the top:

$\text{Sonam's rank} = 26 - 8 = 18$

The class has 45 students in total.

For a student at rank $r$ from the top in a class of $n$ students, the rank from the last is given by:

$\text{Rank from last} = n - r + 1$

Sonam's rank from the last:

$\text{Rank from last} = 45 - 18 + 1$

$\text{Rank from last} = 28$

Therefore, Sonam's rank from the last is 28.
