Given :-
To Find :-
Solution :-
As given that, Position of C from right is 15th and B from right is 8th.
So,
→ Students sitting between B and C = 15 - 8 - 1 = 6
Now, As C is sitting in middle of A and B so there must also be 6 students sitting between A and C.
Thus,
→ Position of C from Left = Position of A from Left + 6 + 1 = 9 + 7 = 16th .
Therefore,
→ Total no. of students = (Sum of positions of C from both sides - 1)
→ Total no. of students = (15 + 16) - 1 = 31 - 1 = 30 (Ans.)
Hence, There were Total 30 students in that row.
