Answer: There are 35 spellers participated in the spelling bee.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Rank of Anish's placement at the highest = 11 th

Rank of Anish's placement at the lowest = 25 th

We need to find the number of spellers participated in the spelling bee.

So, Number of spellers participated in the spelling bee is given by

Highest + Lowest - 1

= 11 + 25 - 1

= 36 - 1

= 35

Hence, there are 35 spellers participated in the spelling bee.
