Given Information:
- Ram is ranked 13th in a class of 23.
- Sham is ranked 14th in the same class.

To Find:
- The ranks of Ram and Sham from the last.

Solution:
To find the ranks of Ram and Sham from the last, we need to subtract their ranks from the total number of students in the class.

Step 1: Find the total number of students in the class.
- The total number of students in the class is given as 23.

Step 2: Find the rank of Ram from the last.
- Ram is ranked 13th in the class.
- To find his rank from the last, subtract his rank from the total number of students in the class: 23 - 13 = 10.
- Therefore, Ram's rank from the last is 10th.

Step 3: Find the rank of Sham from the last.
- Sham is ranked 14th in the class.
- To find his rank from the last, subtract his rank from the total number of students in the class: 23 - 14 = 9.
- Therefore, Sham's rank from the last is 9th.

Final Answer:
- Ram's rank from the last is 10th.
- Sham's rank from the last is 9th.

Explanation:
- Ram and Sham are ranked 13th and 14th respectively in a class of 23.
- To find their ranks from the last, we subtract their ranks from the total number of students in the class.
- Ram's rank from the last is 10th and Sham's rank from the last is 9th.
- Therefore, the correct answer is option 'C': 11th, 10th.

60 students were shortlisted for their Personal Interview by the Indian School of Management. But the interview process was to be conducted online and hence students were sent the KOOM meeting link for the same. All the 60 students were to join the KOOM common room at 9:00 AM sharp and then the admission co-ordinators would send in a certain number of students to different waiting rooms- X, Y and Z prior to their one on one interviews with the panellists. There were 3 panellists- A, B and C who were conducting interviews for the candidates waiting in the rooms X, Y and Z respectively. The capacity for the waiting rooms X, Y and Z were 5, 10 and 15 respectively.The 60 students were given a rank from 1 to 60 based on their composite score and it is known that no two students got the same score. To start off the interviews, the ones with top 5 ranks are sent to panellist A. The 10 below them are sent to B and students ranked 16 to 30 were sent to C. When the last person from the waiting room X, Y and Z gives an interview, the next set of students are immediately sent to the waiting room as soon as the interview gets over and the priority is maintained as students with higher ranks are sent to X, Y and Z respectively if the interviews of the previous batch end simultaneously.It is known that:1. Panellist A takes an interview for 15 minutes and takes a break of 5 minutes only after interviewing 3 candidates2. Panellist B takes an interview for 10 minutes and takes a break of 5 minutes after interviewing 5 students.3. Panellist C takes an interview of 5 minutes and takes a break of 5 minutes after interviewing 4 students.4. Lunch break is scheduled between 12:00 noon to 12:30 PM and students are not cut abruptly if their interview began before 12:00 noon, i.e. the interviewers take the break only after finishing the interview if it started before 12:00 noon.5. Batches of 5, 10 and 15 students enter the waiting room together such that students who enter the waiting room at a time have continuous ranks. For example, if the interviewer X is ending up the interview of the last student from the previous batch, 5 students with continuous ranks (say 21-25) enter the waiting room X together.6. Students allotted to a particular waiting room is only interviewed by the designated interviewer and is not interviewed by anyone else even if the other interviewer is free.7. If panellist A goes into the lunch break after having interviewed 1 student, he will again take his 5 minute break after interviewing 2 students post the lunch break so as to satisfy the condition 1 always. The same applies for panellist B and C who follow conditions 2 and 3 respectively.Which of the following ranked students was interviewed by panellist C?

Directions: Answer the questions on the basis of the information given below.The FIFA World Cup tournament has 16 teams ranked from 1 to 16, taking part in the first stage called the pool stage. They are divided into four pools such that ranks 1, 2, 3 and 4 are in pools 1, 2, 3, 4 respectively; ranks 5, 6, 7, 8 in pools 4, 3, 2, 1 respectively; ranks 9, 10, 11, 12 in pools 1, 2, 3, 4 respectively and ranks 13, 14, 15, 16 in pools 4, 3, 2 and 1 respectively. Each team in a pool plays all the other teams in the pool exactly once. For the next stage called the Super Eight stage, the top two teams from each pool, based on their number of points, would qualify from each of the four pools. If at any stage, two or more teams end up with the same number of points, complex rules are applied to determine their placing. In the Super Eight stage, each team plays every other team except the team that qualified from its own pool. A team qualifying for the Super Eight stage carries forward only those points that it gained in its pool stage match against the other team that qualified from its pool. The top four teams in terms of points at the end of the Super Eight stage, would qualify for the semi-finals with the losers of the semi-finals playing for the third place and the winners of the semi-finals playing the final.For any team, the manner in which the points are awarded for a match, in the pool stage or the Super Eight stage, is : two points for a win and zero points for a loss. An upset is caused when, in any match, a lower ranked team beats a higher ranked team. In any match, in case the scores are equal at the end of the normal duration of play, the teams play extra time till the winner is decided.If the pool stage had only a single upset, the lowest ranked team which can win the tournament is the team ranked
