now,according to me,this is going to be the solution..
firstly no. of matches..-8c2 =28,since twice matches being played,so 56 leaugue matches being played
now,for victory - 2pts ,no tie, for loss 0 pts..=> total 112 pts in the leaugue
now 4 teams reaches to semi,,thereby maximize 3 .which means they have won all matches against the lower 5 ,giving them 60 pts and also those 3 upper played against each other ,giving them 12 pts =>60+ 12 =72 pts
now out of 112 pts ,72 beig distributed,now we have 40 pts left,distribute them in 5 teams,we got each teams having 8 pts,mean min 4 matches can took a team into semi..

srihari  (9 years ago)

Solution for Q2: answer is 14,
there are total 56 matches, if a team has 14 wins and it not reached semi finals means there are 4 other teams whose wins are more than 14, so total number of wins(>4*14+14), which is not possible in just 56 matches


solution for Q1 : total matches 8P2 = 56
Matches played by Each Team = 146
TO go into semis = four team have to win min 8each (total win 8+8+8+8=32)
No to go into semis = loosing team can win max 7each (total win6+6+6+6 = 24)
total win = 32 + 24 = 56

sanjay patel  (9 years ago)

there is a chance that 3 team not win a single match .....
total no. of match = 56
total team in semifinal = 4
out of 5 one team should be out..
so match distribution like 12 ,11,11,11,11 = 56
there is a conflict between 4 team which one to go ...
so minimum no of match is = 12

Is this solution Helpfull? Yes | No   

saurav justin  (7 years ago)
