There are given no: readers such that in each occupied reading spot there are different numbers of readers.. .let us consider d maxm case possible : so for first table 1 person is sitting,2nd table 2 persons sit.. 10 readers equals to(1+2+3+4) so 4 tables are filled ie: 10-4=6 reading spots does not have even a single reader..

- for different no of reader=1,2,3,4(total 10)
in this way only 4 reading spot is filled

- as every spot has different no. of students, it is possible when first one has 1 student second has 2 until total is 10 so 1+2+3+4=10 hence 4 tables are occupied 6 are empty.
