Comprehension
In a square layout of size 5m × 5m, 25 equal sized square platforms of different heights are built. The heights (in metres) of individual platforms are as shown below:
Individuals (all of same height) are seated on these platforms. We say an individual A can reach art individual B if all the three following conditions are met:
(i) A and B are In the same row or column
(ii) A is at a lower height than B
(iii) If there is/are any individuals (s) between A and B, such individual(s) must be at a height tower than that of A.
Thus in the table given above, consider the Individual seated at height 8 on 3rd row and 2nd column. He can be reached by four individuals. He can be reached by the individual on his left at height 7, by the two individuals on his right at heights of 4 and 6 and by the individual above at height 5.
Rows in the layout are numbered from top to bottom and columns are numbered from left to right.

Solution and Explanation
The heights of the platforms given is as below
| 6 | 1 | 2 | 4 | 3 |
| 9 | 5 | 3 | 2 | 8 |
| 7 | 8 | 4 | 6 | 5 |

Statement 1 is incorrect since no individual in row 1 can be reached by 5 or more individuals. Statement 2 is incorrect as row 3 has no individual who cannot be reached by anyone. Statement 4 is incorrect as the individual at height 9 in column 1 can be reached by only 4 individuals. Therefore, the only correct statement is statement 3.

Top Questions on Table
- Four reviewers (R1, R2, R3, R4) are in charge of reviewing products from companies A, B, C, and D. Each reviewer provides a rating between 1 and 5 for the products. Due to a technical glitch, the original ratings were deleted, and only the averages calculated for each product (A, B, C, D) and each reviewer (R1, R2, R3, R4) were saved. The data available is as follows:Tasks:
A B C D Average 3 4 4 ? 4 3 ? 5 ? 4 ? 3 3 ? 4 ? ? ? ? 4.25 4 4 4 4.25
1. What are the missing values in the table?
2. How were the missing values calculated?
3.Verify the correctness of the given averages for both rows and columns. - Out of 10 countries -- Country 1 through Country 10 -- Country 9 has the highest gross domestic product (GDP), and Country 10 has the highest GDP per capita. GDP per capita is the GDP of a country divided by its population. The table below provides the following data about Country 1 through Country 8 for the year 2024.
Column 1 gives the country's identity.
Column 2 gives the country's GDP as a fraction of the GDP of Country 9.
Column 3 gives the country's GDP per capita as a fraction of the GDP per capita of Country 10.
Column 4 gives the country's annual GDP growth rate.
Column 5 gives the country's annual population growth rate.
Assume that the GDP growth rates and population growth rates of the countries will remain constant for the next three years. - The table given below shows the amount, in grams, of carbohydrate, protein, fat and all other nutrients, per 100 grams of nutrients in seven foodgrains. The first column shows the foodgrain category and the second column its codename. The table has some missing values.
The following additional facts are known.
1. Both the pseudo-cereals had higher amounts of carbohydrate as well as higher amounts of protein than any millet.
2. Both the cereals had higher amounts of carbohydrate than any pseudo-cereal.
3. All the missing values of carbohydrate amounts (in grams) for all the foodgrains are non zero multiples of 5.
4. All the missing values of protein, fat and other nutrients amounts (in grams) for all the foodgrains are non-zero multiples of 4.
5. P1 contained double the amount of protein that M3 contains. - There are three sections in a question paper, and each section has 10 questions. First section only has multiplechoice questions, and 2 marks will be awarded for each correct answer. For each wrong answer, 0.5 marks will be deducted. Any unattempted question in this section will be treated as a wrong answer. Each question in the second section carries 3 marks, whereas each question in the third section carries 5 marks. For any wrong answer or unattempted question in the second and third sections, no marks will be deducted. A student’s score is the addition of marks obtained in all the three sections. What is the sixth-highest possible score?
