If Eugene's total for the six races is 36 points, which of the following must be true?

1. Bob's total is more than 36 points.
2. Chris's total is more than 36 points.
3. Alan's total is 36 points.
4. Don's total is less than 36 points.
5. Don's total is 36 points.

If Eugene has 36 points, than he must have 3 first place finishes and 3 last place finishes, because he finishes first or last in every race. Therefore, Alan must also have 3 first place finishes and 3 last place finishes for a total of 36 points. Some of the other options may be true, but none of them are required.
