Correct Answer: Kapil, Rawat
Explanation:
Kapil and Rawat cannot be members of the same team since Kapil and Shalini are to be always selected together, while Rawat and Shalini can never be selected in the same team.
Correct Answer: Rawat
Explanation:
If Rawat is selected, Shalini cannot be selected. Also, Shalini and Kapil will be selected together. Therefore, if Shalini is not selected, Kapil will also not be selected.
It is mentioned that exactly one from Prateek or Tarun will be selected. Taking all the conditions into consideration, Rawat cannot be a member of a team having six members.
Correct Answer: Six
Explanation:
If Shalini is selected, Rawat is definitely not selected. Also, exactly one from Prateek or Tarun is selected, that is, the team can have a maximum of six members.
Correct Answer: Four
Explanation:
If Rawat is selected, Shalini cannot be selected , and therefore Kapil also cannot be selected. Further, Vatsala is definitely selected. Exactly one from Prateek or Tarun has to be selected. This can happen in two ways. Now, the fourth member can be any one from Abhishek and Vinod, which can happen in two ways.
Therefore, total number of ways = 2 x 2 = 4 ways.
