Solution:

Let us first calculate the total number of matches that will be placed:
9C2 * 2
= 9! / (2!7!) * 2
= 8 * 9
= 72
Therefore, every team will play 16 matches.

Let us now glance over the cases that are possible.

Case 1:
Let us say that Team A, Team B and Team C wins 14 matches each (they lose 1 match each from the other two teams), then the Team D can win only (16 - 3 * 2) = 10 matches.

Case 2:
Suppose that, the top 4 teams win 13 matches each.
Team A will win 13 matches and will lose 3 matches from Team B, Team C and Team D.
Team B will win 13 matches and will lose 3 matches from Team A, Team C and Team D.
Team C will win 13 matches and will lose 3 matches from Team A, Team B and Team D.
Team D will win 13 matches and will lose 3 matches from Team A, Team B and Team C.

If this case actually happens, then the Team E will be able to win 8 matches at maximum as Team A, Team B, Team C and Team D will win all the matches played by E.

Case 3:
Suppose that, the top 5 teams win 12 matches each.
Team A will win 12 matches and will lose 3 matches from Team B, Team C, Team D and Team E.
Team B will win 12 matches and will lose 3 matches from Team A, Team C, Team D and Team E.
Team C will win 12 matches and will lose 3 matches from Team A, Team B, Team D and Team E.
Team D will win 12 matches and will lose 3 matches from Team A, Team B, Team C and Team E.
Team E will win 12 matches and will lose 3 matches from Team A, Team B, Team C and Team D.

If this case actually happens, Team E will win 12 matches but it still won't be able to get into the playoffs assuming that it has the lowest run rate among all.

This implies that from case 2, it is evident that a team must win 13 matches at the least to confirm its position in the playoffs.

Solution:

There is no reason whatever why the customer's original deposit of Rs.100 should equal the total of the balances left after each withdrawal.
The total of withdrawals in the left-hand colum may equal Rs.100, but is is purely coincidence that the total of the right-hand column is close to Rs.100.
Let us show another example, but starting with Rs.200 in the bank:
Withdrawals Balance left
Rs.50 Rs.150
Rs.25 Rs.125
Rs.10 Rs.115
Rs.8 Rs.107
Rs.5 Rs.102
Rs.2 Rs.100
Rs.100 Rs.699
Moral of this story? Don't Total Balances
