6 friends play a game of gambling-'Khelo Aur Jeeto' in which all 6 players sit around a circular table with a pin pointer attached on table for each one of them. There is a circular disk placed on the table which is divided into 6 equal divisions on which number I to 6 is marked. In each round of the game, circular disk is rotated and when it stops, number which is in front of pointer of respective players is considered as the score of that particular player. Player with a score of 6 will be winner of that round and all 5 other players will give him an amount which is equal to (6-their score)* 100. For example: A player with a score of 2 will give (6-2)* 100 = 400 to the winner (player with a score 6). This game continues for 5 Rounds and each round will definitely have a winner i.e. winner (score of 6) will be among those players who are not eliminated till that round.
Elimination: If a player loses and after giving money to the winner he is left with no money, then he is eliminated from the game and he will not participate in all other rounds played after that round.
Elimination with Bankruptcy: If a player loses in a round and even after giving the entire amount he had, he is still to give some amount to the winner then he is eliminated with some bankrupt amount. For Example: If a player has Rs.200 and a score 3 in any round, then he has to give Rs.300 to the winner, but as he hasRs.200 so he will give Rs.200 to the winner and will be considered as bankrupt for an amount of Rs. 100.
N- Score of the player in that particular Round.
A1 ....... to A5 are the amounts left with players at the end of Round 1..........to Round 5.

'Aashapurna housing society' has apartments in two wings: east wing and west wing. On occasion of Christmas there is a get-together event being organized by the working committee (WC) of the society. An event comprising a quiz competition, a dumb charades game and a spin the bottle game is to take place, but since all residents of society cannot participate, a pre-final event within the east and west wings takes place separately and selected participant out of these events would compete in final against each other. Secretary of east wing of society supervises the games within his wing and allows each resident to take part in only one game of their choice. All participants of quiz contest are asked 50 questions each and get 1 point for 1 correct answer and 0 point for a wrong answer. All participants of dumb charade are given 50 chances to guess names of 50 movies, and get 1 point for 1 correct guess provided they do not guess a wrong movie name, after which they are considered out of game. Each participant of spin the bottle play 50 rounds of game together and winner of each round gets 1 point and others get 0 point. So, if there are 'n' number of participants then we get '50n' rounds. The game is based on sheer chance. After all games are conducted, the points distribution for East wing residents for quiz competition turned out to be as given below. The similar score was observed for the other two games as well.Answer following questions based on the above information, considering that the following questions are for the final rounds that are to be conducted:A team comprising of 10 participants is to be selected for spin the bottle, what should be the criteria for selection of the team to make sure best participants get selected?

5 persons- P1, P2, P3, P4 and P5 took part in a unique high jump competition where each one was given 10 chances to maximise their points. Each one of them started with a height of 150 cm to clear. If a particular participant cleared the height, in the next jump he was to clear a height of 5 cm more than the previous one. For eg. if a participant cleared 150 cm in his first jump, he will need to clear the height of 155 cm in his next jump. A foul is said to be committed if the participant fails to clear the barrier height. 3 continuous fouls would lead to straight elimination. 10 points are given to a participant who clears the given height and 2 points are deducted for every foul. Also, a participant is said to face an elimination jump if he had committed fouls on both of his two previous attempts. The following additional information is known about the jumps made by the 5 participants-1. P5 was eliminated in his 5th jump and managed to score a total of points in single digit.2. P1 and P2 faced elimination jumps thrice but managed to escape elimination. P1 never cleared two jumps continuously without a foul but P2 did this exactly once. Both of them scored 28 points each and cleared the 10th jump.3. P4 was the only participant who made a maximum of 3 jumps continuously twice and he faced elimination jump once and escaped elimination.4. P3 was eliminated in his 8th jump and he never faced the elimination jump before his 8th jump. Also, he cleared two different heights in two jumps continuously exactly once.5. P2 failed in his 4th and 7th jumps.6. P4 made a foul in his second jump.How many participants did not commit a foul in their 5th attempt?
