    3. 51
    4. 55
    5. 45
    Answer: Option C.
    According to statement given
    No. of students in increasing order in sections are, Y Also, Y= 24 and W= 39.
    W+Z = 66 + Y;
    Z = 66+ Y – W = 66+ 24 – 39 = 51
  2. How many students does section V possibly have?
    1. 39
    2. 43
    3. 55
    4. 31
    5. 14
    Answer:  Option D.
    We know that, Y< V < U < W; also Y=24, W=39. So it must lie between these values.
    Only option that is possible is 31.

    By the inequality, Y<v<u<w<x<z
    Option B is true.
