Propolis Cognitive Error Autopsy

Official Correct Choice:
Option C: 45th
Concept: Inverted Order Rank Formula.

Formula: \(\text{Bottom Rank} = N - \text{Top Rank} + 1\)

Solution:

  • Top Rank of Faiq = 1. Sara's rank from top = \(1 + 5 = 6\).


  • Sara's rank from bottom = \(50 - 6 + 1 = 45\text{th}\).


Why other options are incorrect:

Option D: Exceeds the total class size.
