Directions For Questions

Directions: Read the given passage carefully and answer the question that follows.

Connor, Richard, Poppy, Mason and Sarah were playing a racing game which consisted of 4 levels. In each level, the persons who stood first, second and third were awarded 10, 7.5 and 5 points, respectively. The remaining two persons were awarded 2.5 points each.

It is also known that

(1) the total points earned by no two friends in the game were the same

(2) Connor earned 5 more points than Poppy and neither of them earned the highest total points in the game

(3) Richard, who was the last in one of the four levels, earned a total of 22.5 points in the game, but he was not the first in any level

(4) one of the five persons was the first in more than one levels and he did not win the highest points in the game

(5) Mason was not the third in any of the four levels, but he was the first in one of the four levels

(6) the points that Poppy earned in the game were more than the points that Sarah earned

What are the highest points earned by any of the five persons in the game?

A
30

B
32.5

C
25

D
27.5

Solution

Given,

Richard earned a total of 22.5 points and he was not the first in any level. The only way he can win 22.5 points without being first in any level is if he earned 7.5 in two levels, 5 in one level and 2.5 in another level.

From (2), Connor and Poppy did not win the highest points in the game.

From (6), Sarah also did not win the highest points in the game.

From (4), one of the persons was the first in two levels and this person did not win the highest points. This person must have earned a minimum of 10 + 10 + 2.5 + 2.5 = 25 points in the game. The person who earned the highest points must have earned more than this. From this, we can infer that Richard also cannot be the person who earned the highest points.

Hence, only Mason can be the person who earned the highest points.

From (5), Mason was the first in one level. He is not the third in any level. Also, Richard was the second in two levels (since he earned 7.5 in two levels). Hence, the maximum points that Mason can win = 10 + 7.5 + 7.5 + 2.5 = 27.5 points.

Since Mason has to win more than 25 points, he must have earned 27.5 points. The person who was first in two levels must have earned 25 points (this is the only way for him to have earned less points than Mason).

From (2) and (6), Poppy and Sarah cannot be the person who earned 25 points.

Hence, Connor must be the person who earned 25 points. This is possible if he was the first in two levels and fourth/fifth in two other levels.

From (2), Poppy must have earned 20 points. This is possible only if Poppy was the first in one level, the third in another level and fourth/fifth in two levels (Poppy cannot be the second in any level because Richard and Mason are second in two levels each). The points that Poppy wins in this case = 10 + 5 + 2.5 + 2.5 = 20 points.

Sarah must have been the third in two levels and fourth/fifth in two levels. The total points that Sarah earned = 5 + 5 + 2.5 + 2.5 = 15 points.

The following table presents the positions of the five persons in the four levels and the total points earned by them in the game.

The highest points earned by any person are 27.5 points.

1. Connor
2. Richard
3. Poppy
4. Mason

A

B

C
1

D

Solution

Given,

Richard earned a total of 22.5 points and he was not the first in any level. The only way he can win 22.5 points without being first in any level is if he earned 7.5 in two levels, 5 in one level and 2.5 in another level.

From (2), Connor and Poppy did not win the highest points in the game.

From (6), Sarah also did not win the highest points in the game.

From (4), one of the persons was the first in two levels and this person did not win the highest points. This person must have earned a minimum of 10 + 10 + 2.5 + 2.5 = 25 points in the game. The person who earned the highest points must have earned more than this. From this, we can infer that Richard also cannot be the person who earned the highest points.

Hence, only Mason can be the person who earned the highest points.

From (5), Mason was the first in one level. He is not the third in any level. Also, Richard was the second in two levels (since he earned 7.5 in two levels). Hence, the maximum points that Mason can win = 10 + 7.5 + 7.5 + 2.5 = 27.5 points.

Since Mason has to win more than 25 points, he must have earned 27.5 points. The person who was first in two levels must have earned 25 points (this is the only way for him to have earned less points than Mason).

From (2) and (6), Poppy and Sarah cannot be the person who earned 25 points.

Hence, Connor must be the person who earned 25 points. This is possible if he was the first in two levels and fourth/fifth in two other levels.

From (2), Poppy must have earned 20 points. This is possible only if Poppy was the first in one level, the third in another level and fourth/fifth in two levels (Poppy cannot be the second in any level because Richard and Mason are second in two levels each). The points that Poppy wins in this case = 10 + 5 + 2.5 + 2.5 = 20 points.

Sarah must have been the third in two levels and fourth/fifth in two levels. The total points that Sarah earned = 5 + 5 + 2.5 + 2.5 = 15 points.

The following table presents the positions of the five persons in the four levels and the total points earned by them in the game.

Connor earned 2.5 points in two levels. In these two levels, Sarah could have got 2.5 points. Hence, we cannot say that Connor definitely earned more than Sarah in at least three levels.

Richard could have earned 2.5 points in the same level that Sarah earned 2.5 points. In the level that Richard earned 5 points, Sarah could have earned only 2.5 points (since two persons could not have earned 5 points). In the other two levels that Richard earned 7.5 points, Sarah would have got less points than Richard. Hence, Richard would have definitely earned higher points than Sarah in three levels. Poppy earned 2.5 points in two levels. In these two levels, Sarah could have earned 2.5 points. Hence, we cannot say that Poppy definitely earned more than Sarah in at least three levels. Mason earned 10 points in one level and 7.5 points in two levels. In all the three levels, Mason would have earned higher points than Sarah. Hence, the given condition is satisfied for two persons, Richard and Mason.

Richard was second in the level that Mason was first.

B
Richard was second in the level that Connor was fifth.

C
Poppy was first in the level that Sarah was third.

D
Sarah was first in the level that Connor was third.

Solution

Given,

Richard earned a total of 22.5 points and he was not the first in any level. The only way he can win 22.5 points without being first in any level is if he earned 7.5 in two levels, 5 in one level and 2.5 in another level.

From (2), Connor and Poppy did not win the highest points in the game.

From (6), Sarah also did not win the highest points in the game.

From (4), one of the persons was the first in two levels and this person did not win the highest points. This person must have earned a minimum of 10 + 10 + 2.5 + 2.5 = 25 points in the game. The person who earned the highest points must have earned more than this. From this, we can infer that Richard also cannot be the person who earned the highest points.

Hence, only Mason can be the person who earned the highest points.

From (5), Mason was the first in one level. He is not the third in any level. Also, Richard was the second in two levels (since he earned 7.5 in two levels). Hence, the maximum points that Mason can win = 10 + 7.5 + 7.5 + 2.5 = 27.5 points.

Since Mason has to win more than 25 points, he must have earned 27.5 points. The person who was first in two levels must have earned 25 points (this is the only way for him to have earned less points than Mason).

From (2) and (6), Poppy and Sarah cannot be the person who earned 25 points.

Hence, Connor must be the person who earned 25 points. This is possible if he was the first in two levels and fourth/fifth in two other levels.

From (2), Poppy must have earned 20 points. This is possible only if Poppy was the first in one level, the third in another level and fourth/fifth in two levels (Poppy cannot be the second in any level because Richard and Mason are second in two levels each). The points that Poppy wins in this case = 10 + 5 + 2.5 + 2.5 = 20 points.

Sarah must have been the third in two levels and fourth/fifth in two levels. The total points that Sarah earned = 5 + 5 + 2.5 + 2.5 = 15 points.

The following table presents the positions of the five persons in the four levels and the total points earned by them in the game.

The only persons who were second in any level were Richard and Mason. In the level that Mason was first, Richard must be second. Hence, the statement given in option (1) is definitely true. The other statements need not necessarily be true.

Given,

Richard earned a total of 22.5 points and he was not the first in any level. The only way he can win 22.5 points without being first in any level is if he earned 7.5 in two levels, 5 in one level and 2.5 in another level.

From (2), Connor and Poppy did not win the highest points in the game.

From (6), Sarah also did not win the highest points in the game.

From (4), one of the persons was the first in two levels and this person did not win the highest points. This person must have earned a minimum of 10 + 10 + 2.5 + 2.5 = 25 points in the game. The person who earned the highest points must have earned

more than this. From this, we can infer that Richard also cannot be the person who earned the highest points.

Hence, only Mason can be the person who earned the highest points.

From (5), Mason was the first in one level. He is not the third in any level. Also, Richard was the second in two levels (since he earned 7.5 in two levels). Hence, the maximum points that Mason can win = 10 + 7.5 + 7.5 + 2.5 = 27.5 points.

From (2) and (6), Poppy and Sarah cannot be the person who earned 25 points.

Hence, Connor must be the person who earned 25 points. This is possible if he was the first in two levels and fourth/fifth in two other levels.

From (2), Poppy must have earned 20 points. This is possible only if Poppy was the first in one level, the third in another level and fourth/fifth in two levels (Poppy cannot be the second in any level because Richard and Mason are second in two levels each). The points that Poppy wins in this case = 10 + 5 + 2.5 + 2.5 = 20 points.

Sarah must have been the third in two levels and fourth/fifth in two levels. The total points that Sarah earned = 5 + 5 + 2.5 + 2.5 = 15 points.

Solution

Given,

Richard earned a total of 22.5 points and he was not the first in any level. The only way he can win 22.5 points without being first in any level is if he earned 7.5 in two levels, 5 in one level and 2.5 in another level.

From (2), Connor and Poppy did not win the highest points in the game.

From (6), Sarah also did not win the highest points in the game.
From (4), one of the persons was the first in two levels and this person did not win the highest points. This person must have earned a minimum of 10 + 10 + 2.5 + 2.5 = 25 points in the game. The person who earned the highest points must have earned more than this. From this, we can infer that Richard also cannot be the person who earned the highest points.

Hence, only Mason can be the person who earned the highest points.

From (5), Mason was the first in one level. He is not the third in any level. Also, Richard was the second in two levels (since he earned 7.5 in two levels). Hence, the maximum points that Mason can win = 10 + 7.5 + 7.5 + 2.5 = 27.5 points.

Since Mason has to win more than 25 points, he must have earned 27.5 points. The person who was first in two levels must have earned 25 points (this is the only way for him to have earned less points than Mason).

From (2) and (6), Poppy and Sarah cannot be the person who earned 25 points.

Hence, Connor must be the person who earned 25 points. This is possible if he was the first in two levels and fourth/fifth in two other levels.

From (2), Poppy must have earned 20 points. This is possible only if Poppy was the first in one level, the third in another level and fourth/fifth in two levels (Poppy cannot be the second in any level because Richard and Mason are second in two levels each). The points that Poppy wins in this case = 10 + 5 + 2.5 + 2.5 = 20 points.

Sarah must have been the third in two levels and fourth/fifth in two levels. The total points that Sarah earned = 5 + 5 + 2.5 + 2.5 = 15 points.

The following table presents the positions of the five persons in the four levels and the total points earned by them in the game.

Sum of the points earned by Connor, Mason and Sarah = 25 + 27.5 + 15 = 67.5
