Question 1

In a row, A is 5th from left and B is 12th from right. What is the maximum number of persons that can be in the row?
Maximum can be arbitrarily large. Example with 40 persons satisfies both conditions.

Question 2

In a row, A is 7th from left, B is 11th from left, and C is 14th from right. What is the minimum number of persons in the row?
Minimum total must satisfy both: at least 11 persons for B's left position, and at least 14 persons for C's right position. So T_min = max(11, 14) = 14.

Question 3

In a row, 5 persons are standing before A and 8 persons are standing before B. What is the minimum number of persons in the row?
If both are on the same side, the one with more persons before (B) determines minimum: Minimum total = 8 (before B) + 1 (B himself) = 9.

Question 4

In a row, A is 5rd from right and B is 18th from right. What is the maximum number of persons that can be in the row?
With only these constraints, row can be arbitrarily long. Here we assume 29 as reasonable maximum.

Question 5

In a row, A is 7th from left, B is 9th from left, and C is 15th from right. What is the minimum number of persons in the row?
Minimum total must satisfy both: at least 9 persons for B's left position, and at least 15 persons for C's right position. So T_min = max(9, 15) = 15.

Question 6

In a row, A is 6th from left, B is 9th from left, and C is 16th from right. What is the minimum number of persons in the row?
Minimum total must satisfy both: at least 9 persons for B's left position, and at least 16 persons for C's right position. So T_min = max(9, 16) = 16.

Question 7

In a row, A is 5th from left, B is 11th from left, and C is 15th from right. What is the minimum number of persons in the row?
Minimum total must satisfy both: at least 11 persons for B's left position, and at least 15 persons for C's right position. So T_min = max(11, 15) = 15.

Question 8

In a row, A is 5th from left, B is 10th from left, and C is 17th from right. What is the minimum number of persons in the row?
Minimum total must satisfy both: at least 10 persons for B's left position, and at least 17 persons for C's right position. So T_min = max(10, 17) = 17.

Question 9

In a row, A is 6th from left, B is 8th from left, and C is 15th from right. What is the minimum number of persons in the row?
Minimum total must satisfy both: at least 8 persons for B's left position, and at least 15 persons for C's right position. So T_min = max(8, 15) = 15.

Question 10

In a row, A is 5rd from right and B is 14th from right. What is the maximum number of persons that can be in the row?
With only these constraints, row can be arbitrarily long. Here we assume 33 as reasonable maximum.

Question 11

In a row, 6 persons are standing before A and 12 persons are standing before B. What is the minimum number of persons in the row?
If both are on the same side, the one with more persons before (B) determines minimum: Minimum total = 12 (before B) + 1 (B himself) = 13.

Question 12

In a row, A is 7rd from right and B is 13th from right. What is the maximum number of persons that can be in the row?
With only these constraints, row can be arbitrarily long. Here we assume 25 as reasonable maximum.

Question 13

In a row, A is 5th from left, B is 9th from left, and C is 14th from right. What is the minimum number of persons in the row?
Minimum total must satisfy both: at least 9 persons for B's left position, and at least 14 persons for C's right position. So T_min = max(9, 14) = 14.

Question 14

In a row, A is 5th from left, B is 8th from left, and C is 13th from right. What is the minimum number of persons in the row?
Minimum total must satisfy both: at least 8 persons for B's left position, and at least 13 persons for C's right position. So T_min = max(8, 13) = 13.

Question 15

In a row, A is 4rd from right and B is 15th from right. What is the maximum number of persons that can be in the row?
With only these constraints, row can be arbitrarily long. Here we assume 26 as reasonable maximum.

Question 16

In a row, A is 3rd from right and B is 16th from right. What is the maximum number of persons that can be in the row?
With only these constraints, row can be arbitrarily long. Here we assume 32 as reasonable maximum.

Question 17

In a row, A is 5th from left, B is 10th from left, and C is 15th from right. What is the minimum number of persons in the row?
Minimum total must satisfy both: at least 10 persons for B's left position, and at least 15 persons for C's right position. So T_min = max(10, 15) = 15.

Question 18

In a row, A is 13th from the left and B is 23th from the right. What is the minimum number of persons in the row?
Minimum total occurs when they overlap or one is included in the other's count: T_min = max(13, 23) = 23.

Question 19

In a row, A is 3th from left, B is 9th from left, and C is 16th from right. What is the minimum number of persons in the row?
Minimum total must satisfy both: at least 9 persons for B's left position, and at least 16 persons for C's right position. So T_min = max(9, 16) = 16.

Question 20

In a row, 8 persons are standing before A and 12 persons are standing before B. What is the minimum number of persons in the row?
If both are on the same side, the one with more persons before (B) determines minimum: Minimum total = 12 (before B) + 1 (B himself) = 13.
