Eight friends
(CAT 2017)
Eight
friends: Ajit, Byomkesh, Gargi, Jayanta, Kikira, Manik, Prodosh and Tapesh are
going to Delhi from Kolkata by a flight operated by Cheap Air. In the flight,
sitting is arranged in 30 rows, numbered 1 to 30, each consisting of 6 seats,
marked by letters A to F from left to right, respectively. Seats A to C are to
the left of the aisle (the passage running from the front of the aircraft to
the back), and seats D to F are to the right of the aisle. Seats A and F are by
the windows and referred to as Window seats, C and D are by the aisle and are
referred to as Aisle seats while B and E are referred to as Middle seats. Seats
marked by consecutive letters are called consecutive seats (or seats next to
each other). A seat number is a combination of the row number, followed by the
letter indicating the position in the row; e.g., 1A is the left window seat in
the first row, while 12E is the right middle seat in the 12th row.
Cheap
Air charges Rs. 1000 extra for any seats in Rows 1, 12 and 13 as those have
extra legroom. For Rows 2-10, it charges Rs. 300 extra for Window seats and Rs.
500 extra for Aisle seats. For Rows 11 and 14 to 20, it charges Rs. 200 extra
for Window seats and Rs. 400 extra for Aisle seats. All other seats are
available at no extra charge.
