=> The total number of persons = Raghav position from left + Raghav position from right - 1

=> The total number of persons = 23 + 16 - 1 = 38

Naresh position from the right:

=> The total number of persons = Naresh position from left + Naresh position from right - 1

=> 38 = 14 + Naresh position from right - 1

=> Naresh position from right = 38 - 14 + 1 = 39 - 14 = 25

Hence, Naresh position from right  is “25”.
