Answer the following question based on the information given below.
In an MBA entrance exam, questions are classified into two sections - Quants and Verbal. The number of questions in Quants is less than 100 while that in Verbal is not less than 75. Within each section, the questions are classified into Easy or Difficult based on the number of concepts involved. An easy question requires not more than 1 concept, while a difficult question requires 2 or more concepts to solve.Further, a question could be lengthy (atleast 3 minutes to solve) or non- lengthy (less thanl minute to solve).
Based on the following data, answer the subsequent questions.
1. The number of difficult, non-lengthy questions in Verbal is 10 less than half the number of easy, non-lengthy questions in Quants.
2. The ratio of number of easy, lengthy questions in Quants to number of difficult, lengthy questions in Verbal is 5:3.
3. The number of non-lengthy, difficult questions in Quants is 5 less than thrice the number of lengthy, easy questions in Verbal.
4. The number of lengthy questions in Verbal is 35 less than the number of easy questions in Quant.
5. The number of non-lengthy questions in Quants is 30 more than the number of difficult questions in Verbal.
6. The number of easy, non lengthy question in Verbal is thrice the number of lengthy, difficult questions in Quant.
7. Each sub-section had atleast 5 questions.

Group QuestionAnswer the following question based on the information g...
Represent Quant-lengthy-easy as Q-L-E, Verbal-non-lengthy-difficult as V-NL-D and so on.
Let Q-L-E = 5x, Q-NL-E = 2z, Q-L-D = K and V-L-E = y
V-L-D = 3x (from 2), V-NL-D = z - 10 (from 1), V-NL-E = 3K (from 6) and Q-NL-D = 3y - 5 (from 3)
Now, the questions in Quants and Verbal can be classified as easy/difficult or lengthy/non-lengthy as shown below.
The number of non-lengthy questions in Quants is 30 more than the number of difficult questions in Verbal.
2z + 3y - 5 = (3x + z — 10) + 30
3y + z - 3x = 15 ...(i)
The number of lengthy questions in Verbal section is 35 less than the number of easy questions in Quant.
y + 3x = (5x + 2z) - 35
2x - y + 2z = 35 ...(ii)
From (i) and (ii)
7y - 8x = 15
(x,y) = (6, 9) or (13, 17) or (20, 25) etc.
Corresponding value for z = 16 or 13 or 10 etc..
Since each sub-section has at least 5 qestions, the number of non-lengthy, difficult question in the verbal section
z = 16
Thus, (x,y ,z) = (6, 9, 16) Also,the number of question in Quants is less than 100 while that in verbal is not less than 75.
Number o f questions in Quants = 5x + 2z + (3y - 5 ) + K = M + K < 100

Understanding the Problem
In this MBA entrance exam scenario, we categorize questions into two sections: Quants and Verbal, each having Easy and Difficult questions, further classified as Lengthy or Non-lengthy. Our goal is to determine the number of Easy but Lengthy questions in the Verbal section.
Given Conditions
- The number of Easy, Non-lengthy questions in Quants must be analyzed first.
- Difficult, Non-lengthy questions in Verbal = (Easy, Non-lengthy questions in Quants / 2) - 10.
- The ratio of Easy, Lengthy questions in Quants to Difficult, Lengthy questions in Verbal is 5:3.
- The number of Non-lengthy, Difficult questions in Quants is influenced by the number of Lengthy, Easy questions in Verbal.
- Lengthy questions in Verbal are fewer than Easy questions in Quants.
- Non-lengthy questions in Quants exceed Difficult questions in Verbal by 30.
- Easy, Non-lengthy questions in Verbal are thrice the Lengthy, Difficult questions in Quants.
Solving the Problem
1. Let Easy, Lengthy questions in Quants = 5x and Difficult, Lengthy questions in Verbal = 3x (from the ratio).
2. Substitute the values into the conditions to derive relationships and equations.
3. By solving these equations, you will find the quantities of each category.
Final Steps
After evaluating these relationships, you will determine the number of Easy, but Lengthy questions in the Verbal section. The calculations will yield that this number is 9.
Conclusion
Thus, the number of Easy, but Lengthy questions in the Verbal section is:
Answer: 9 (Option A)
