Salim is at the center and his position is 12th. This means there are 11 people to his left and 11 people to his right. Therefore, the total number of people in the row is 11 + 1 + 11 = 23. Ankita is at the 8th position from the right. To find her position from the left, we subtract her position from the right from the total number of people in the row and then add 1. This is because we need to account for Ankita's position itself. So, her position from the left is 23 - 8 + 1 = 16. Therefore, Ankita's position from the left side is 16th.

Ananya is taller than Akanksha but shorter than Anushka. Anushka is shorter than Arya and taller than Ananya. Who is the tallest among them?
Anushka
Arya
Ananya
Akanksha
Let's analyze the given information step-by-step to determine the order of heights:
Based on the combined information, the order from tallest to shortest is Arya, Anushka, Ananya, and Akanksha. Therefore, Arya is the tallest among them.
The key to solving this problem is carefully parsing each sentence and building a consistent height order, paying close attention to the comparative terms ('taller than', 'shorter than'). Redundant information, while not strictly necessary, often serves as a check on the accuracy of our interpretation of the relationships.
