PGDBA 2022 Question Paper | PGDBA LR

A museum has five halls. Each hall has a separate entry ticket which must be purchased right before entering that hall. The ticket price for each hall is non-zero and unique. Moreover, the ticket price for each hall is a multiple of 30. Hall-3 and Hall-1 have the maximum and minimum ticket prices, respectively. Ticket price of Hall-5 is twice that of Hall-4. A visitor must visit Hall-1 first before deciding the sequence (clockwise, i.e. 1->5->4->3->2 OR anti-clockwise, i.e. 1->2->3->4->5) of visiting the remaining halls. Three photographers - Amardeep, Barnali, and Chanchal, visited all the halls by purchasing tickets worth Rs 450 each. Moving from one hall to another took five minutes for each of them. Table 1 below provides the time spent by the three photographers in each hall. Visiting a hall is considered complete only after a photographer spends the specified time (as given in Table 1) in that hall. Consider the time taken to purchase the ticket as negligible. The floor plan of the museum is given in Fig. 1 (each circle represents a hall, e.g. circle numbered 1 represents Hall-1).

Person	Time spent in each hall
Amardeep	15 minutes
Barnali	10 minutes
Chanchal	20 minutes
