    Total boys = [ Malay’s place from starting + Malay’s place from end ] –1

    Number of passed students = [ Malay’s place from starting + Malay’s place from end ] –1

    Correct Option: C

    Total boys = [ Malay’s place from starting + Malay’s place from end ] –1
    Total boys = [13 + 17] – 1 = 29
    Number of passed students = [ Malay’s place from starting + Malay’s place from end ] –1
    Number of passed students = [8 + 13] – 1= 20
    ∴ Number of failed students = 29 – 20 = 9

    According to question,
    ‘P’ is neither as tall as ‘M’ nor as short as ‘O’.
    M > P > O .............................(1)
    ‘N’ is shorter than ‘P’ but taller than ‘O’.
    P > N > O...............................(2)
    Compare the equation (1) and (2),

    Correct Option: D

    According to question,
    ‘P’ is neither as tall as ‘M’ nor as short as ‘O’.
    M > P > O .............................(1)
    ‘N’ is shorter than ‘P’ but taller than ‘O’.
    P > N > O...............................(2)
    After comparing the equation (1) and (2),
    we will get,
    M > P > N > O
    The correct order of dolls according to descending order of their heights are : M > P > N > O.
    Therefore, Anvi will purchase the doll M.

    If the positions of the first and the sixth digits of the group of digits 5904627813 are interchanged.
    New number after interchange = 2904657813
    Then the positions of the second and the seventh are interchanged.
    New number after interchange = 2704659813

    Correct Option: B
