As per the given information we have four teams, four couples and 4 different pointsI. “Sweet Couple” won 2 pointsII. Mukesh's team won 4 points more than Lina's team and Lina's team has not scored the least points. Therefore, only possible options is Lina has 4 points and Mukesh has 8 points. It also means that Mukesh (with point 8) is not with Lina, and both of them  does not belongs to “Sweet Couple”III. “Just Singing” won 6 points. Hence Mukesh and Lina do not belongs to “Just Singing”IV. Sanjeev's team scored 4 points. While from (II) we have seen that Lina has also 4 points hence Sanjeev and Lina belongs to same group.V. Laxman is the only male remaining, who is in the team which scored 2 points i.e. “Sweet Couple” since from (I) we know that “Sweet Couple” has 2 points.VI. “Bindas Singers” won 2 more points than Laxman's team hence it has 4 points.VII. Waheda was not on “New Singers”, so she must belongs to “Sweet Couple” and Divya is in the team “New Singers”.VIII. Tapas & Sania were on the same team but it wasn't “Sweet Couple”. It cannot be New Singers as Divya belongs to the team. So, the only possible team is “Just Singing”.Now we will tabulate this information –<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tbody><tr><td valign="bottom" width="123">Team</td><td valign="bottom" width="76">Male</td><td valign="bottom" width="63">Female</td><td valign="bottom" width="59">Points</td></tr><tr><td valign="bottom" width="123">Sweet Couple</td><td valign="bottom" width="76">Laxman</td><td valign="bottom" width="63">Waheda</td><td valign="bottom" width="59">2</td></tr><tr><td valign="bottom" width="123">Bindas Singers</td><td valign="bottom" width="76">Sanjeev</td><td valign="bottom" width="63">Lina</td><td valign="bottom" width="59">4</td></tr><tr><td valign="bottom" width="123">Just Singing</td><td valign="bottom" width="76">Tapas</td><td valign="bottom" width="63">Sania</td><td valign="bottom" width="59">6</td></tr><tr><td valign="bottom" width="123">New Singers</td><td valign="bottom" width="76">Mukesh</td><td valign="bottom" width="63">Divya</td><td valign="bottom" width="59">8</td></tr></tbody></table>From the table correct sequence is Sweet Couple, Bindas Singers, Just Singing, New Singers.

If a win carries an award of Rs. 150 and a loss carries of Rs. 100, what is the largest difference in prize money earned among the four?

Vishal Baghel

We get the following table of earnings:

Persons	Win Total	Average
P	36 * 150 + 14 * 100 = 6800	136
Q	34 * 150 + 21 * 100 = 7200	131
R	23 * 150 + 36 * 100 = 6850	116
S	30 * 150 + 30 * 100 = 6000	100

Now we can see that the largest difference

= Maximum – Minimum = Rs. 7500 – Rs. 6800

= Rs. 700
