How many byes will be given if 22 teams are participating in a knock out tournament?
Answers
Answer:
Answer is 23 byes
[ Total no matches = Total no of team -1 = 24-1 = 23. As the total no of teams are more then 16 so we have to divide teams also in quarter. ]

plz mark as brainlliest..!
Byes are given if the total number of teams is not a multiple of 2ⁿ. It is done to ensure that each team gets to play a match in the subsequent rounds. If the number of teams is odd in any round, the one team will be left with no opponent. A team that gets a bye, directly plays in the next round.
To calculate the number of byes we subtract the total number of teams from the nearest multiple of 2ⁿ
Here, the total number of teams here is 22.
The nearest multiple of 2ⁿ is 32, where n = 5
No. of byes = 32 - 22
= 10
Therefore, the number of byes given in the tournament will be 22.
