Answer 1

Given:

Total number of students in the row = 73

Gita's position = 16th from the left end.

Sunita's position = 21st to the right of Gita.

Total persons = (Rank from Left) + (Rank from Right) - 1

Find Sunita's position from the left end:

Sunita's position from the left = Gita's position from left + 21

= 16 + 21

= 37th.

Now, we can find Sunita's position from the right end using her rank from the left and the total number of students:

Sunita's position from the right = Total students - (Sunita's rank from left) + 1

= 73 - 37 + 1

= 36 + 1

= 37th.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".
