Five first-graders stood in a line and held 37 flags. All those to the right of Tanya had 14 flags, to the right of Yasha - 32, to the right of Vera - 20, and to the right of Maksim - 8. How many flags does Dasha have?

## Solution

Obviously, the more flags to the right of a first-grader, the "further left" their place in the line. Someone is standing to the right of Maksim (otherwise there would be no flags to his right). But everyone except Dasha is definitely standing to the left of Maksim. Therefore, Dasha is standing to the right of Maksim and holding 8 flags.

## Answer

8 flags.
