Answers & Solutions:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

1)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

No college had the same rank in 2 surveys.
\nA managed a position within the top 3 in all the surveys.
\nOnly A had a better rank than D in all 3 surveys.
\nAverage rank of D is 4.
\n=> Sum of the ranks secured by D = 12.
\nWe know that D secured the second rank in the survey by KIRF.
\n=> Sum of ranks secured by D in the BS and GT surveys = 10.
\n10 can be represented as (5,5) or (6,4).
\nWe know that no college secured the same rank in 2 surveys.
\nTherefore, the ranks secured by D must be 6 and 4.
\nD had a better rank in the survey conducted by BS than the one conducted by GT.
\nWe know that A managed a position within the top 3 in all 3 surveys.
\nTherefore, A must have secured second and third positions in the other 2 surveys. Also, the average rank secured by A must be 2.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Let us solve each question separately now. The points that one must bear in mind while filling the table are<\/p>\n

(I) B managed to get a better rank than C in 2 of the 3 surveys.
\n(II) GT deemed C to be a better college than A.<\/p>\n

B was ranked third in the survey conducted by BS. Also, we know that the average ranks of B and C were not equal.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Now, A must have secured second rank and C must have secured first rank in the survey conducted by BS.<\/p>\n

In the other 2 surveys, B must have a better rank than C. A must have secured third rank in the survey conducted by GT.
\nC must have secured second rank (since GT deems C to be a better college than C) and B must have secured first rank.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Since B has secured third rank in BS rankings, it must have secured the fourth or fifth rank in the KIRF rankings.
\nHad B secured fifth rank, C must have secured the sixth rank (Since 2 of the 3 surveys place B above C).<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

In this case, the average rank secured by both B and C will be equal (3).
\nTherefore, we can eliminate this possibility.<\/p>\n

B must have secured 4th\u00a0rank and C must have secured sixth rank.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Therefore, option B is the right answer.<\/p>\n

2)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n

We know that no college secured the same rank in 2 surveys.
\nTherefore, the ranks secured by D must be 6 and 4.<\/p>\n

D had a better rank in the survey conducted by BS than the one conducted by GT.<\/p>\n

We know that A managed a position within the top 3 in all 3 surveys.
\nTherefore, A must have secured second and third positions in the other 2 surveys. Also, the average rank secured by A must be 2.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Let us solve each question separately now. The points that one must bear in mind while filling the table are<\/p>\n

(I) B managed to get a better rank than C in 2 of the 3 surveys.
\n(II) GT deemed C to be a better college than A.<\/p>\n

Average rank secured by B is 2 and C is 3.<\/p>\n

Therefore, sum of the ranks secured by B and C must be 6 and 9 respectively.
\nSum of ranks secured by B is 6. Therefore, the ranks must be 1,2 and 3.
\nB must have secured third rank in the survey conducted by KIRF (Since the first 2 ranks are already taken up).
\nC had a better rank than A in the survey conducted by GT.<\/p>\n

Had C secured first rank in the survey conducted by BS, then C must have secured second rank in the survey conducted by GT.
\nA must have secured third rank in the survey conducted by GT and second rank in the survey conducted by BS. However, B could not have secured third rank in the survey conducted by BS since A has secured third rank. Therefore, this case can be eliminated.<\/p>\n

Had C secured first rank in the survey conducted by GT, B must have secured first rank in the survey conducted by BS. A must have secured second rank in the survey conducted by BS and C must have secured the third rank. The rankings will be as follows:<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

As we can see, C must have secured fifth rank in the survey conducted by KIRF.<\/p>\n

Therefore, option C is the right answer.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

We know that no college secured the same rank in 2 surveys.
\nTherefore, the ranks secured by D must be 6 and 4.<\/p>\n

D had a better rank in the survey conducted by BS than the one conducted by GT.<\/p>\n

We know that A managed a position within the top 3 in all 3 surveys.
\nTherefore, A must have secured second and third positions in the other 2 surveys. Also, the average rank secured by A must be 2.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Let us solve each question separately now. The points that one must bear in mind while filling the table are<\/p>\n

(I) B managed to get a better rank than C in 2 of the 3 surveys.
\n(II) GT deemed C to be a better college than A.<\/p>\n

Average rank secured by B and C is the same.<\/p>\n

Average rank secured by B and C cannot be 2 since in KIRF one of the 2 must have secured a rank greater than 3.
\nAverage rank cannot be 6 as well.
\nAverage rank cannot be 5 since both of them have a rank less than 4 in the BS survey.<\/p>\n

Let us consider the possibility that the average rank is 4.
\nTherefore, sum of ranks must be 12.
\nAlso, we know that rank secured by A in GT is better than the one it secured in the survey by BS.
\nTherefore, A must have secured second rank in GT and third rank in BS.
\nIn the BS survey, B and C must have secured first and second ranks, respectively.
\nSince C is ranked better than A by GT, C must have secured the first rank in the GT survey.
\nNow, C must have secured a rank of 8 in the KIRF ranking for the average rank to be 4. As we can see, this case is impossible.<\/p>\n

Therefore, the average rank of both B and C must be 3.
\nC must have secured first rank in the GT survey and second rank in the BS survey.
\nFor the average rank to be 6, C must have secured sixth rank in the KIRF survey.<\/p>\n

B must have secured first rank in the BS survey.
\nNow, the sum of the ranks secured by B in the other 2 surveys must be 9-1 = 8.
\n8 can be represented as (4,4), (5,3) or (6,2).<\/p>\n

We can eliminate the case (4,4) since no college secured the same ranking in 2 colleges.
\nWe can eliminate (6,2) too since no 2 colleges secured the same ranking in a survey.
\nTherefore, the final ranking will be as follows:<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Rank secured by B in the GT survey will be 3 or 5.
\nTherefore, option A is the right answer.<\/p>\n

4)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

We know that no college secured the same rank in 2 surveys.
\nTherefore, the ranks secured by D must be 6 and 4.<\/p>\n

D had a better rank in the survey conducted by BS than the one conducted by GT.<\/p>\n

We know that A managed a position within the top 3 in all 3 surveys.
\nTherefore, A must have secured second and third positions in the other 2 surveys. Also, the average rank secured by A must be 2.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Let us solve each question separately now. The points that one must bear in mind while filling the table are<\/p>\n

(I) B managed to get a better rank than C in 2 of the 3 surveys.
\n(II) GT deemed C to be a better college than A.<\/p>\n

Average rank secured by B = Average rank secured by A + 1.<\/p>\n

Therefore, the average rank secured by B must be 3.
\nSum of the ranks secured by B = 9.
\nNow, had A secured second rank in the GT survey and third rank in the BS survey, C must have secured the first rank in the GT survey and second rank in BS survey.
\nB must have secured the first rank in the BS survey.<\/p>\n

Now, B must have secured either fifth or third rank in the KIRF and GT surveys.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

In this case, the rank secured by C is two.<\/p>\n

Let us consider the other possibility.<\/p>\n

Had A secured third rank in the GT survey, A would have secured second rank in the BS survey.
\nC must have secured the second or first rank in the GT survey.<\/p>\n

Had C secured first rank in the GT survey, it would have secured third rank in the BS survey.
\nB would have secured first rank in the BS survey.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Had C secured second rank in the GT survey, C could have secured first or third rank in the BS survey.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

As we can see, C could have secured any of the top 3 ranks and hence, option D is the right answer.<\/p>\n

5)\u00a0Answer:\u00a023<\/b><\/p>\n

From given data, we know that,
\nthe kid who selected Ice-Cream and Pastry or none of the two
\nthe kid who selected Candy or Tiramisu didn\u2019t select Ambrosia
\nthe kid who selected Ice-cream and Pastry didn\u2019t select Cookie.<\/p>\n

Thus the possible ways of selecting three deserts are:
\n1) Ice-cream, Pastry and Candy
\n2) Ice-cream, Pastry and Tiramisu
\n3) Ice-cream, Pastry and Ambrosia
\n4) Candy, Tiramisu and Cookie<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start by the desert which least number of kids selected, i.e. Ambrosia – 42
\nWe see that those who selected Ambrosia also selected Ice-cream and Pastry.
\nSo, 42 kids who selected Ice-cream and Pastry also selected Ambrosia.
\nThus, remaining kids who selected Ice cream and Pastry:
\nIce-cream = 93 – 42 = 51
\nPastry = 93 – 42 = 51<\/p>\n

Now, let\u2019s consider the desert which was selected by second least number of kids, i.e. Cookie – 84
\nWe see that those who selected Cookie also selected Candy and Tiramisu.
\nSo, 84 kids selected Candy, Tiramisu and Cookie.
\nThus, remaining kids who selected Candy, Tiramisu:
\nCandy = 107 – 84 = 23
\nTiramisu = 112 – 84 = 28<\/p>\n

Now, let\u2019s consider the remaining desert which was selected by least number of kids, i.e. Candy – 23
\nThese 23 kids must also select Ice-cream and Pastry.
\nSo, 23 kids who selected Ice-cream and Pastry also selected Candy.
\nThus, remaining kids who selected Ice cream and Pastry:
\nIce-cream = 51 – 23 = 28
\nPastry = 51 – 23 = 28<\/p>\n

Thus, remaining 28 kids who selected Ice-cream and Pastry would\u2019ve also selected Tiramisu.
\nThus, we get our final table as shows the combination and the number of kids who opted for it:<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Thus, total number of kids = 23 + 28 + 42 + 84 = 177<\/p>\n

23 is the right answer.<\/p>\n

\nthe kid who selected Candy or Tiramisu didn\u2019t select Ambrosia
\nthe kid who selected Ice-cream and Pastry didn\u2019t select Cookie.<\/p>\n

Thus the possible ways of selecting three deserts are:<\/p>\n

1) Ice-cream, Pastry and Candy<\/p>\n

2) Ice-cream, Pastry and Tiramisu<\/p>\n

3) Ice-cream, Pastry and Ambrosia<\/p>\n

4) Candy, Tiramisu and Cookie<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start by the desert which least number of kids selected, i.e. Ambrosia – 42
\nWe see that those who selected Ambrosia also selected Ice-cream and Pastry.
\nSo, 42 kids who selected Ice-cream and Pastry also selected Ambrosia.
\nThus, remaining kids who selected Ice cream and Pastry:
\nIce-cream = 93 – 42 = 51
\nPastry = 93 – 42 = 51<\/p>\n

Now, let\u2019s consider the desert which was selected by second least number of kids, i.e. Cookie – 84
\nWe see that those who selected Cookie also selected Candy and Tiramisu.
\nSo, 84 kids selected Candy, Tiramisu and Cookie.
\nThus, remaining kids who selected Candy, Tiramisu:
\nCandy = 107 – 84 = 23
\nTiramisu = 112 – 84 = 28<\/p>\n

Now, let\u2019s consider the remaining desert which was selected by least number of kids, i.e. Candy – 23
\nThese 23 kids must also select Ice-cream and Pastry.
\nSo, 23 kids who selected Ice-cream and Pastry also selected Candy.
\nThus, remaining kids who selected Ice cream and Pastry:
\nIce-cream = 51 – 23 = 28
\nPastry = 51 – 23 = 28<\/p>\n

Thus, remaining 28 kids who selected Ice-cream and Pastry would\u2019ve also selected Tiramisu.
\nThus, we get our final table as shows the combination and the number of kids who opted for it:<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Thus, total number of kids = 23 + 28 + 42 + 84 = 177<\/p>\n

Or
\nNumber of kids present in the part = $\\frac{Number of deserts distributed}{3} = \\frac{93+93+107+112+84+42 }{3} = \\frac{531}{3}$ = 177<\/p>\n

Let the weight of Rahul be R.<\/p>\n

We know that the machine displayed +, -, + , +\u00a0 in that order.
\n=> Praveen’s weight > R
\nVarun’s weight is less than Praveen’s weight. However, we cannot determine whether Varun’s weight is less than Rahul’s weight.
\nSanjay is heavier than Varun. Gautam is heavier than Sanjay.
\nLet us represent the weights of the persons using the first letters of their name.
\nThe relationships that can be established are
\nR < P >\u00a0V < S <\u00a0G<\/p>\n

Let us evaluate the options.<\/p>\n

Option\u00a0A:
\nRahul is not the lightest person among the five.
\n=> Varun is the lightest.
\nNo relationship can be established between P and S.<\/p>\n

Option\u00a0C:
\nPraveen is heavier than Sanjay.
\nWe cannot determine whether Gautam is heavier than Praveen or not.<\/p>\n

Option\u00a0D:
\nPraveen is not the heaviest person among the five.
\n=> Gautam is the heaviest among the five.
\nHowever, we cannot determine whether Praveen is heavier than Sanjay.<\/p>\n

Option B:
\nGautam is not the heaviest person among the five.
\n=>Praveen is the heaviest.
\n=> V < S < G < P
\nWe can rank the 4 friends using option B and hence, option\u00a0B is the right answer.<\/p>\n
