Cevap

The total number of vehicles parked in the row is 32.
When the rank of a single item is given from both ends of a row, the total number of items is calculated using N=Rank from Left+Rank from Right1N = \text{Rank from Left} + \text{Rank from Right} - 1. Adding 1414 and 1919 gives 3333, and subtracting 11 to correct for double-counting gives 3232.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the given position values for the object.
Position from left (LL) = 14, Position from right (RR) = 19.
The rank of a single object is provided from both ends of a single linear row.
2
Apply the dual-rank single-person total formula.
Total (NN) = L+R1=14+191=32L + R - 1 = 14 + 19 - 1 = 32.
The specified car is counted twice (once from the left and once from the right), so 11 must be subtracted from the sum of ranks.
