    Case (i): Teams with 2 members:
    A cannot be a member of any such team as otherwise at least one of B and C must be selected ( From condition (ii) and if B is selected then D also and if C is selected then E also hence in this case number of teams would be more than Possible teams are:
    (B, D), (C, E), (D, E ) and (E, F)
    Case (ii): Teams with 3 members: Possible teams with 3 members are (A, C, E), (A, B, D), (C, E, D)
    Case (iii): Teams with 4 members: Possible teams with 4 members are (A, B, D, F), (A, C, E, D)

    Correct Option: C

    Vats is in Car 1 and Aks is in Car 2. Now, Meh and Rey are also in Car 1, which means that Dan is in Car 2.
    Car 1 : Vats, Meh and Rey
    Car 2 : Aks , Dan
    The number of possible ways to arrange the remaining person is
    Car 1 : Chat, Nag
    Car 2 : Ana, Vij
    Car 1 : Ana, Vij
    Car 2 : Chat, Nag
    Car 1 : Ana
    Car 2 : Chat, Nag, Vij
