It is known that there was a tie in one of the rounds. When Yarsolav was eliminated, who was the 2nd most voted?
- Noa
- King
- Lima
- Either option A or B
- All of the above possible
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
From the first table, Horvi, Rangirk and Felicia were definitely not voted out because they received no votes against them.
From the 2nd table:
As Daman, Ana, Yaroslav, Gangra were voted against in just one round and the votes against them are at least 5, they definitely must have been voted out in any of the first 5 rounds .
Noa must have not been voted out, as the maximum number of votes against her in any round would be 2 as she is voted against in 3 rounds, with total votes against her as 4. With 2 votes against, even in the fifth round, she could only be the 2nd most voted against.
So, Lima must have been voted out as King was not voted out.
The 2nd most voted votes must be 4 and 3 for King. (as 5 votes are enough to be voted out even in the first round)
Ana must have been voted out in the first round.
If tie is not possible:
If tie is possible:
From the table, in both cases when Yarsolav was eliminated, the 2nd most voted was Noa.
So, the correct option is A.

An investment company, Win Lose, recruit's employees to trade in the share market. For newcomers, they have a one-year probation period. During this period, the employees are given Rs. 1 lakh per month to invest the way they see fit. They are evaluated at the end of every month, using the following criteria:
1. If the total loss in any span of three consecutive months exceeds Rs. 20,000, their services are terminated at the end of that 3-month period,
2. If the total loss in any span of six consecutive months exceeds Rs. 10,000, their services are terminated at the end of that 6-month period.
Further, at the end of the 12-month probation period, if there are losses on their overall investment, their services are terminated.
Ratan, Shri, Tamal and Upanshu started working for Win Lose in January. Ratan was terminated after 4 months, Shri was terminated after 7 months, Tamal was terminated after 10 months, while Upanshu was not terminated even after 12 months. The table below, partially, lists their monthly profits (in Rs. ‘000’) over the 12-month period, where x, y and z are masked information.
Note:
• A negative profit value indicates a loss.
• The value in any cell is an integer.
Illustration: As Upanshu is continuing after March, that means his total profit during January-March (2z +2z +0) ≥
Rs.20,000. Similarly, as he is continuing after June, his total profit during January − June ≥
Rs.10,000, as well as his total profit during April-June ≥ Rs.10,000.
