Solution

The correct option is C Satyajit Ray
Bharat Ratna is the highest civilian honour, given for exceptional service towards advancement of Art, Literature and Science, and in recognition of Public Service of the highest order. Satyajit Ray, an Indian filmmaker and among the dozen or so great masters of world cinema, is known for his humanistic approach to cinema. He made his films in Bengali, a language spoken in the eastern state of India - West Bengal. And yet, his films are of universal interest. They are about things that make up the human race - relationships, emotions, struggle, conflicts, joys and sorrows.

In a 4 person race, medals are awarded to the fastest 3 sprinters. The first-place sprinter receives a gold medal, the second-place sprinter receives a silver medal, and the third-place sprinter receives a bronze medal. In the event of a tie, the tied sprinters receive the same color medal. (For example, if there is a two-way tie for first-place, the top two sprinters receive gold medals, the next-fastest sprinter receives a silver medal, and no bronze medal is awarded). Assuming that exactly three medals are awarded, and that the three medal winners stand together with their medals to form a Winner's triangle, how many different Winners' triangles are possible?
