Given:
Nature of the tournament: League tournament
Number of teams participating = 8
To Find:
Number of byes
Solution:
Byes are teams that do not compete in the first round of the tournament and still qualify for the second round.
The number of byes in league tournament = 2ⁿ - No. of teams
(Here 2ⁿ ≥ No. of teams)
We know that 8 = 2 X 2 X 2 = 2³
Since the number of teams can be expressed as a repetitive multiple of 2,
The number of byes = 2³ - 8 = 8 - 8 = 0
Hence, there are no byes in the given tournament.
