There are 21 employees working in a division, Out of whom 10 are special-skilled employees (SE) and the remaining are regular-skilled employees (RE). During the next five months, the division has to complete five projects every month Out of the 25 projects, 5 projects are “challenging, while the remaining ones are standard’. Each of the challenging projects has to be completed in different months. Every month, five teams - T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5, work on one project each. T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 are allotted the challenging project in the first, second, third, fourth and fifth month, respectively. The team assigned the challenging project has one more employee than the rest.

In the first month, T1 has one more SE than T2, T2 has one more SE than T3, T3 has one more SE than T4, and T 4 has one more SE than T S. Between two successive months, the composition of the teams changes as follows:

a. The team allotted the challenging project, gets two SE from the team which was allotted the challenging project in the previous month. In exchange, one RE is shifted from the former team to the latter team.

b. After the above exchange, if T1 has any SE and TB has any RE, then one SE is shifted from T1 to T5, and one RE is shifted from TB to T1. Also, if T2 has any SE and T4 has any RE, then one SE is shifted from T2 to T4, and one RE is shifted from T4 to T2.

Each standard project has a total of 100 credit points, while each challenging project has 200 credit points. The credit points are equally shared between the employees included in that team.

Sure, here is the re-worded version:

The teams are assigned SEs and REs in the following way:

  • Team T1: 4 SEs and 1 RE
  • Team T2: 3 SEs and 1 RE
  • Team T3: 2 SEs and 2 REs
  • Team T4: 1 SE and 3 REs
  • Team T5: 0 SEs and 4 REs

The challenging project is assigned to a different team each month. When a team is assigned the challenging project, two SEs are transferred from the team with the most SEs to the team with the challenging project. One RE is also transferred from the team with the most REs to the team with the challenging project.

In the third month, team T3 is assigned the challenging project. Two SEs are transferred from team T2 to team T3, and one RE is transferred from team T3 to team T2. One SE is also transferred from team T1 to team T5, but since team T1 has no SEs, the transfer does not happen.

Therefore, team T1 has 0 SEs in the third month. Team T5 has 2 SEs in the third month because the SE that was transferred from team T1 is added to the 2 SEs that were already in team T5.

The answer to the question is (0, 2), which represents the number of SEs in teams T1 and T5 in the third month, respectively.
