=> The number of boys in the row = Karun position from the left + Karun position from the right - 1
=> The number of boys in the row = 13 + 6 – 1 = 19 - 1 = 18
Position of Panth from the right:
=> The number of boys in the row = Panth position from the left + Panth position from the right - 1
=> Panth position from the right = The number of boys in the row - Panth position from the left + 1
=> Panth position from the right = 18 - 5 + 1 = 19 - 5 = 14
Hence, total “14” students in the row.
