A person is ‘satisfied’ if a project meets all three preferences.
Identify the project(s), where AT LEAST 3 of the persons will be ‘satisfied’.
Answer & solution
- A
M only
- B
S only
- C
Q and R only
M, Q and S only
- E
M, Q and R only
In this question, if a project has more than 3 unsatisfied people then that project is disregarded.
In project R, we can see that Patel, Khan and Lingdo will be unsatisfied since there is no recreation club. This eliminates option 3 and 5
In project M, Bhatia, Yadav and Singh will be the only people unsatisfied on the criteria of Price. Therefore, this project is considered.
In project S, Bhatia will be the only person unsatisfied on the criteria of distance to mall. Therefore, this project is considered.
The only option with M and S both present is option 4.
Hence, option (d).
