Answer the next 5 questions based on the information given below.
A hotel uses 3 cars C1, C2 and C3 to transport guests between hotel and airport. C1 can carry a maximum of 2 guests, C2 can carry a maximum of 4 guests while C3 can carry a maximum of 6 guests.
The lower capacity car is preferred over a higher capacity car. For example if 3 guests need to go to the airport and all cars are available, C2 will be preferred over C3. [3 guests cannot travel in C1]
Any car travelling from hotel to airport or airport to hotel is counted as one trip. Further, no car will make a trip without at least one guest.
At the beginning of a day, all the three cars were at the hotel. During the course of the day, the three cars made a total of ten trips, which are sequentially labelled Trip 1, Trip 2, Trip 3 and so on till Trip 10 (irrespective of the exact car that made the trip), in the order in which the trips started. For any two consecutive trips, the second trip started only after the first was completed. It is known that at the end of Trip 10, all the cars were at the same place. The following table provides information about the number of guests who travelled in each trip:
