ReplyDeleteI decide to give one point for this Queston to ananth!
ReplyDeletewhats your say...
I had the same confusion Shikhar , but i negelected those words..
ReplyDeletethis is my answer
ReplyDelete1-d
2-d
3-c
4-c
5-d
6-b
7-a
8-b
7 correct answers but it is satisfying all the questions......
the answer occuring the least is a but if u look only upto 7 then b shld come therefore the score is 7 because while scoring we will only count upto the current question including the current question.
what do u say ananth.
yah i think it deserves 1.
ReplyDeleteYou have all messed up Shikhar..
ReplyDeleteyour solution has only 4 satisfying answers...please look at it once again..
Sajal gets 2 points for solving this puzzle correctly!!
ReplyDeleteoh no yaar i cudn't bilieve how i cud make that mistake............
ReplyDeletebut i still don't understand the puzle what are we exactly supposed to do aur sajal ka last answer a kyun hai..................................
I have satisfied the first 7 questions correctly and only the last one is wrong.The trick is that the last question neednt be true.
ReplyDeleteSo i have 7 correct answers(1-7) and the last one is wrong(A). I had to mark it A otherwise some other question would have been wrong.
Thanks for the 2 points and i surely deserved them as the question was too tought to handle..and one more thing ..is there any alternative answer?
there is no other alternative answer to this question. i hope Shikhar's doubt has been cleared by Sajal's post.
ReplyDeletebut if you look at the question it asks you to satisfy all the questions it doesn't say u have to get maximum no of correct answers................
ReplyDeleteso there should be a way in which our answers satisfy all the questions.
i mean scoring can be done on the basis of all the above questions including the current question so dat a question might b right at that time but afterwards it doesn't satisfy it so that the highest score becomes different than 8 bcoz if the last answer is d it does not satisfy all the questions.
so i request you to either modify the question or state clearly what we are supposed to do.
