1. Sixty-four players seeded from seed 1 to seed 64 participated in a knock-out tennis tournament. Seed 1 is the highest seed and seed 64 is the lowest seed. The tournament would be played in six rounds i.e., first round, second round, third round, quarterfinals, semi finals and final. In the first round, the player with the highest seed (i.e., 1) would play with the player with the lowest seed (i.e., 64) which is designated Match No.1.

Similarly, the player with the second highest seed (i.e., 2) would play with the player with the second lowest seed (i.e., 63), which is designated Match No.2 and so on. In the second round, the winner of the Match No.1 of the first round would play with the winner of the Match No.32 of the first round and this match is designated Match No.1 of the second round.

Similarly, the winner of the Match No.2 of the first round would play with the winner of the Match No.31 of the first round and this match is designated Match No.2 of the second round and so on. In the similar pattern the subsequent rounds will be played.

Q If the player seeded 43 won the tournament, then which of the following players cannot be the runner-up?

Player seeded 44

Player seeded 44

Player seeded 45

29%

We can represent the matches In the tournament as follows:

Solution:

From the above diagram, we can see that if the player seeded 43 reached finals, then the player seeded 46 cannot reach the final, as they are in the same half of the draw and exactly one person from each half of the draw reaches the finals.

As the player seeded 12 is present in the top half of the draw, the lowest seeded player in the bottom half i.e.. the player seeded 63 can play with him in the final.

Any player, to win the tournament, needs to win six matches. If five of them are upsets, then the player seeded 32 can win the tournament.

4. Amit. Basheer, Chris. Dharam and Esso are 5 friends. All of them are of different heights. The tallest person’s position is numbered 1, the next tallest 2, and so on, till the shortest whose position number is 5.

(I)The sum of Amit’s position number and Esso ‘s position number is equal to the sum of Dharam’s position number and Chris’ position number.

(II)Chris is not the shortest and Amit is not the tallest.

(III)Chris is shorter than Amit, and Dharam is shorter than Basheer.

Who is the tallest?

Amit is not the tallest and Chris is not the shortest. Further, Amit is taller than Chris and Basheer is taller than Dharam. Since Chris is shorter than Amit but not the shortest,

Amit cannot be number 5.

Similarly Chris cannot be number 2.

Basheer cannot be the shortest, since he is taller than Dharam. Dharam cannot be 1.

The possibilities are

Amit (A) —> 2, 3

Basheer (B) —> 1, 2, 3, 4

Chris (C) —> 3, 4

Dharam (D) —> 2, 3, 4, 5

Esso (E) —> 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

Now A + E = C + D.

But C can take only 3 or 4, and neither A nor D can take 1.

Therefore, C+D= (3+2) or(2+3) is not possible, A+ E: (1 +4)

or (4 + 1), and A is neither 1 nor 4.

Therefore, C + D = 3 + 4 is possible.

Hence, A+E= 2+5-------- (1)

C + D = 4 + 3 is possible.

Hence, A + E = 2 + 5 -------- (2)

Therefore, Basheer is 1 in both the cases.

Basheer is the tallest.

5. If Dharam is shorter than Chris. then which of the following is true?

7. A team of 5 players Arpit, Bimal, Chatur, Dinu and Elan participated in a ‘Freaket’ tournament and played four matches (1 to 4). The following table gives partial information about their individual scores and the total runs scored by the team in each match.

Each column has two values missing. These are the runs scored by the two lowest scorers in that match.None of the two missing values is more than 10% of the total runs scored in that match.

Match-1 Match-2 Match-3 Match-4
Runs scored by player Arpit 100 53
Bimal 88 65 52
Chatur 110
Dinu 72 75 20 56
Elan 60 78
Total 270 300 240 200

Q What is the maximum possible percentage contribution of Arpit in the total runs scored in the four matches?

28.85%

Let us analyse the scores of Match-1 first:

Runs scored by Bimal, Dinu and Elan = 88 + 72 + 60 = 220

Hence, runs scored by Arpit and Chatur = 270 – 220 = 50

Also 10% of 270 = 27

So, both Arpit and Chatur can score a maximum of 27 runs but the sum of their scores should be 50.

Arpit’s score’s range in Match-1 is 23–27 and subsequently Chatur’s score’s range in Match-1 is 27–23.

Similarly Chatur and Dinu scored 30 runs each in Match-2.

In Match-3 even though 10% of 240 = 24, as Dinu scored 20 runs, both Arpit and Bimal can score a maximum of 19 runs, but the sum of their scores should be 32.

In Match-4, Chatur and Elan combined scored 200 – 53 – 52 – 56 = 39 runs. As 10% of 200 = 20, one of Chatur or Elan scores 20 runs and the other scores 19 runs.

The table can be re-written as :

Match-1 Match-2 Match-3 Match-4
Runs scored by player Arpit 27–23 100 19–13 53
Bimal 88 65 13–19 52
Chatur 23–27 30 110 19–20
Dinu 72 75 20 56
Elan 60 30 78 20–19
Total 270 300 240 200

 Maximum possible runs scored by Arpit in Match-1 = 27

Maximum possible runs scored by Arpit in Match-3 = 19

Maximum possible percentage contribution:

(27+100+19+53)/(270+300+240+200)x100% = 199/1010x100%
= 19.7%

Good Job! Did you know? : With $8.5 billion in their kitty, Wipro is the 4th largest Indian IT company in terms of revenue.

Oops!

8. If the absolute difference between the total runs scored by Arpit and Chatur in the four matches is minimum possible then what is the absolute difference between total runs scored by Bimal and Elan in the four matches?

Hence, runs scored by Arpit and Chatur = 270 – 220 = 50

Also 10% of 270 = 27

So, both Arpit and Chatur can score a maximum of 27 runs but the sum of their scores should be 50.

Arpit’s score’s range in Match-1 is 23–27 and subsequently Chatur’s score’s range in Match-1 is 27–23.

Similarly Chatur and Dinu scored 30 runs each in Match-2.

In Match-3 even though 10% of 240 = 24, as Dinu scored 20 runs, both Arpit and Bimal can score a maximum of 19 runs, but the sum of their scores should be 32.

In Match-4, Chatur and Elan combined scored 200 – 53 – 52 – 56 = 39 runs. As 10% of 200 = 20, one of Chatur or Elan scores 20 runs and the other scores 19 runs.

The table can be re-written as :

Match-1 Match-2 Match-3 Match-4
Runs scored by player Arpit 27–23 100 19–13 53
Bimal 88 65 13–19 52
Chatur 23–27 30 110 19–20
Dinu 72 75 20 56
Elan 60 30 78 20–19
Total 270 300 240 200

Maximum possible total runs scored by Chatur in the four matches = 27 + 30 + 110 + 20 = 187.

In such a case minimum possible total runs scored by Arpit in the four matches = 23 + 100 + 13 + 53 = 189.

Difference = 189 – 187 = 2 (minimum possible) Subsequently total runs scored by Bimal in the four matches = 88 + 65 + 19 + 52 = 224.

Also, total runs scored by Elan in the four matches = 60 + 30 + 78 + 19 = 187

Absolute difference = 224 – 187 = 37

9. The players are ranked 1 to 5 on the basis of the total runs scored by them in the four matches, with the highest scorer getting Rank 1. If it is known that no two players scored the same number of total runs, how many players are there whose rank can be exactly determined?

In Match-3 even though 10% of 240 = 24, as Dinu scored 20 runs, both Arpit and Bimal can score a maximum of 19 runs, but the sum of their scores should be 32.

In Match-4, Chatur and Elan combined scored 200 – 53 – 52 – 56 = 39 runs. As 10% of 200 = 20, one of Chatur or Elan scores 20 runs and the other scores 19 runs.

The table can be re-written as :

Match-1 Match-2 Match-3 Match-4
Runs scored by player Arpit 27–23 100 19–13 53
Bimal 88 65 13–19 52
Chatur 23–27 30 110 19–20
Dinu 72 75 20 56
Elan 60 30 78 20–19
Total 270 300 240 200

ndividual ranges for total score:

Arpit-> 189-199

Bimal-> 218-224

Chatur-> 182-187

Dinu-> 223

Elan-> 187-188

Least total will be of Chatur (Rank 5)

2nd least will be Elan (Rank 4)

Rank 3 must be of Arpit.

It is not possible to determine the exact ranks of Bimal and Dinu.
