Answer 1

Improved answer:

def get_position(s: str, c: str):
    return s.index(c)

print("Position:", get_position("----d---", "d"))

Previous, more basic answer:

def get_position(s: str, c: str):
    for i, char in enumerate(s):
        if char == c:
            return i


print("Position:", get_position(s="----d---", c="d"))

Answer 2

Use rindex:

jeff = "wow bru"
print("Position:",jeff.rindex("r")+1)

Explanation:

jeff.rindex("r") returns the index of the letter r in the string assigned to jeff, and +1 just increaces that value by one, because indexing starts with 0 and we want it to start with 1.
