Answer 1

Given:

Total number of students in the row = 54

Karma's position from the left end = 12th

Namgyal is 21st to the right of Karma.

Namgyal's position from the left end = Karma's position from the left end + Position of Namgyal to the right of Karma

Namgyal's position from the left end = 12 + 21

= 33

Now, we need to find Namgyal's position from the right end of the line.

Position from the right end = Total number of students - Position from the left end + 1

Namgyal's position from the right end = 54 - 33 + 1

Namgyal's position from the right end = 21 + 1

= 22

Thus, Namgyal's position from the right end of the line is 22nd.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".
