Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

The correct choice is: 9

Boys + girls = 45 with girls = 2 × boys, so boys = 15 and girls = 30.

Ravi is 11th, so 10 students are ahead of him: 5 girls and hence 5 boys.

Ravi himself is a boy, so boys after him =15−5−1=9= 15 - 5 - 1 = 9.

Hence the answer is 9.
