There are 35 students and every one has equal chance of being selected as a leader. Hence, the leader can be appointed in 35 ways. When one person is appointed as leader, we are left with 35 students. Out of these 34 teachers, we can select one class representative. So, a class representative can be selected in 34 ways. Hence, the number of ways in which a leader and class representative can be selected = 35 x 34 = 1190
Therefore, the answer is (D).
