Question

What is the minimum number of wins with which a person can advance from the 1^st module to the second module?

• A. 4
• B. 5
• C. 3
• D. 6
• E. 2

Answer 1

The correct option is C 3

Total number of face-offs are ⁸C₂=28. If the highest number of wins in module 1 is 7, then the other person advancing to the next round can win 3 face-offs and qualify. The remaining people can also win 3 face-offs each; totaling to 7+(7*3) =28 face-offs. If 7 members win 2 face-offs, then the total number of points do not add up to 28. Hence, answer is option (c)
