In a row of cadets, Sheila is fifteenth from the left and Leila is fifteenth from the right. When the two cadets interchange their places, Leila becomes sixteenth from the right, How many cadets are there in the row? Correct Answer 30

Number of cadets in the row = Sheila's position before interchange + Leila's position after interchange - 1

Number of cadets in the row = 15 + 16 -1

Number of cadets in the row = 30

Hence, Option (3) is correct.
