Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
1. Find Raghu's rank: Out of 50 students, 10 have ranks worse than Raghu. Therefore, Raghu's rank from the top is 50 - 10 = 40th. 2. Use the given relationship: Raghu's rank is twice that of Paul. Let Paul's rank be P. So, 40 = 2 × P. 3. Calculate Paul's rank: P = 40 / 2 = 20th. Final Answer: Option D
