  • Question
  • If Ricky Singh a lucky player from South Kolkata reached semi final stage after getting the minimum possible points, then what is the point scored by Mr. Ricky Singh.


  • Options
  • A. 4
  • B. 5
  • C. 7
  • D. None of these

  • Correct Answer


  • Explanation

    In stage I, in a group in total 6 matches and that will have 12 points in total.
    Total number of matches in this stage is 4 × 6 = 24
    In stage II, total 8 players and they play each other except a player who comes from same group but point of their match in stage I is carried forward hence in stage II total points is 28 × 2 = 56.
    Number of matches in stage II is 7 × ( 8/2 ) ? 4 = 24
    In this case we have to minimize the points scored by 4th ranker (Who advanced to Semi Final). In order to minimize the points scored by Ricky Singh top three players should get maximum points, Let points achieved by top three player at the end of stage II is 14, 12 and 10 summing up to 14 + 12 + 10 = 36 and remaining points 56 - 36 = 20 got distributed to bottom 5 players.
    To minimize the points scored by Ricky Singh, all of the bottom five got same point (20/5 = 4 points) and with complex tie breaker Ricky is advanced to Semifinal.
