Comprehension:
Adhara, Bithi, Chhaya, Dhanavi, Esther, and Fathima are the interviewers in a process that awards funding for new initiatives. Every interviewer individually interviews each of the candidates individually and awards a token only if she recommends funding. A token has a face value of 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, or 13. Each interviewer awards tokens of a single face value only.
Once all six interviews are over for a candidate, the candidate receives a funding that is Rs.1000 times the product of the face values of all the tokens. For example, if a candidate has tokens with face values 2, 5, and 7, then they get a funding of Rs.1000 × (2 × 5 × 7) = Rs.70,000.
Pragnyaa, Qahira, Rasheeda, Smera, and Tantra were five candidates who received funding. The funds they received, in descending order, were Rs.390,000, Rs.210,000, Rs.165,000, Rs.77,000, and Rs.66,000.
The following additional facts are known:
1. Fathima awarded tokens to everyone except Qahira, while Adhara awarded tokens to no one except Pragnyaa.
2. Rashida received the highest number of tokens that anyone received, but she did not receive one from Esther.
3. Bithi awarded a token to Smera but not to Qahira, while Dhanavi awarded a token to Qahira but not to Smera.
Who among the following definitely received a token from Bithi but not from Dhanavi?
From statement 1 we can deduce that Fatima gave token 3 and Adhara gave token 13 and therefore from this we can say that Qahira received a funding of 77,000 and Pragnyaa received a funding of 390,000.
From statement 2, we know that Rashida received highest number of tokens and we already concluded that Pragnyaa received a funding of 390,000 so we can say that Rashida received a funding of 210,000.
Rashida did not received a token from Esther so we can also conclude that Esther gave the token number 11.
From statement 3 we can conclude that Dhanavi gave a token of 7, and Bethi Gave a token of either 2 or 5 and similarly Chhaya also gave a token of 2 or 5.
Alternate Explanation:
$$390=2\times3\times5\times13$$
$$210=2\times3\times5\times7$$
$$165=3\times5\times11$$
$$77=7\times11$$
$$66=2\times3\times11$$
From the above information we can conclude that the number of times a particular token was given, therefore we get the following table,
We know that there are five people who received the token and there are 6 people who awarded the token.
From, statement 1 we know that Fatima gave token to 4 people except Qahira so the token number given by Fatima is 3, and Adhara gave token only to Pragnyaa so the token number given by Adhara is 13. Therefore we can also say that Pragnyaa received 390,000 and Qahira received 77,000.
From statement 2, we know that Rashida received highest number of tokens and we already concluded that Pragnyaa received a funding of 390,000 so we can say that Rashida received a funding of 210,000. Rashida did not received a token from Esther so we can also conclude that Esther gave the token number 11.
From statement 3, we can conclude that Dhanavi gave a token of 7, and Bethi Gave a token of either 2 or 5 and similarly Chhaya also gave a token of 2 or 5.
