Answer:
what does this word fixture means?
Answer:
We have total 9 teams, total maches will be 8
teams in upper half will be 5 and in lower half will be 4. Total number of byes will be 7 and total number of rounds will be
Explanation:
We have given as total number of teams as 9
total number matches= N-1 = 9-1= 8 (N = total teams)
Number of teams in upper half = N+1/2 = 9+1/2 = 10/2 = 5 teams
Number of teams in lower half = N-1/2 = 9-1/2 = 8/2 = 4 teams
Total number of byes = Next power of 2 - total Number of teams
= 16-9 = 7 Byes { next power of 2 = 16 }
Number of byes in Upper half = NB-1/2 = 7-1/2 = 6/2 = 3b ( NB = total number of byes)
Number of byes in Lower half = NB+1/2 = 7+1/2 = 8/2 = 4b
Number of Rounds 2×2×2×2 = (2) ^4
= 4 rounds.
