    Answer : Option B

    Explanation :

    Since Anup is 15th from the front, it is that 14 boys were in front of him. It is therefore thrice as many behind him as are in front. Hence, 42 boys are behind thus total boys in the column = 42 + 15 = 57

    The number of boys between Anup and the both boy from the end of the column = 57 - 15 - 7 = 35
