Correct answer: 5
Explanation: ā Correct Answer: D) 5 š Explanation: If Raju is 8th from the right after shifting 3 places to the right, his original position was 11th from the right (8 + 3). In a row of 15 children, the 11th position from the right is the 5th position from the left (15 - 11 + 1 = 5). This calculation uses the standard ranking formula for total number in a row.
