Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In the first scenario, between Caliente and Bongo, two friends prefer Caliente over Bongo (you prefer Bongo, but your other two friends prefer Caliente). So, Caliente wins the first round. In the second round, between Caliente and Amigos, two friends prefer Amigos over Caliente (you and your other friend prefer Amigos over Caliente). Thus, Amigos wins. In the second scenario, between Caliente and Amigos, two friends prefer Amigos over Caliente (you and your other friend). So, Amigos wins the first round. In the second round, between Amigos and Bongo, two friends prefer Amigos over Bongo (you and your other friend prefer Amigos over Bongo). Thus, Amigos wins again. However, the question seems to have a mistake in its setup or options, as the explanation leads to Amigos winning in both scenarios, not matching any of the provided choices exactly. The correct interpretation based on the given preferences and voting scenarios should lead to Amigos winning in both cases, indicating a potential error in the question or choices.
