PUZZLE—1
A travel agency operates five different buses — P, Q, R, S and T — on a certain route. Since, all the
five buses are of different types, the capacities (number of seats) of the five buses are all different
among 25, 30, 40, 50 and 60, in no particular Order. The fare per head of each bus is a different
amount among Rs.250, Rs.300, Rs.500, Rs.600 and Rs.700, in no particular order. It is assumed that
for any trip, each bus is fully occupied.
Total revenue per trip for a bus of any type = Number of Seats x Fare per head.
Further, it is known that for a single trip,
(i) the total revenue collected from bus Q is more than that from bus S and the total revenue bus P
is more than that from bus T.
(ii) the difference between the fare per head of bus Q and that of bus T is Rs,200.
(iii) the total revenue collected from each bus is distinct and more than Rs.10000.
(iv) the capacity of bus R is not 25 and the total revenue collected from bus S is not the least.
(v) the fare per head R is Rs.700 and the total revenue Collected from bus S is not Rs.15,000.
