Answer the following questions based on the information given below:

There are nine boxes arranged in a 3×3 array as shown in Tables 1 and 2. Each box contains three sacks. Each sack has a certain number of coins, between 1 and 9, both inclusive. 

The average number of coins per sack in the boxes are all distinct integers. The total number of coins in each row is the same. The total number of coins in each column is also the same. 

​​​​​​​

Table 1 gives information regarding the median of the numbers of coins in the three sacks in a box for some of the boxes. In Table 2 each box has a number which represents the number of sacks in that box having more than 5 coins. That number is followed by a * if the sacks in that box satisfy exactly one among the following three conditions, and it is followed by ** if two or more of these conditions are satisfied.

1. The minimum among the numbers of coins in the three sacks in the box is 1.
2. The median of the numbers of coins in the three sacks is 1.
3. The maximum among the numbers of coins in the three sacks in the box is 9.

Answer the following question based on the information given below.

In a square layout of size 5m × 5m, 25 equal-sized square platforms of different heights are built.

The heights (in metres) of individual platforms are as shown below:

                         6 1 2 4 3
                         9 5 3 2 8
                         7 8 4 6 5
                         3 9 5 1 2
                         1 7 6 3 9

Individuals (all of same height) are seated on these platforms. We say an individual A can reach an individual B if all the three following conditions are met:

(i) A and B are in the same row or column
(ii) A is at a lower height than B
(iii) If there is / are any individual(s) between A and B, such individual(s) must be at a height lower than that of A.

Thus in the table given above, consider the individual seated at height 8 on 3rd row and 2nd column. He can be reached by four individuals. He can be reached by the individual on his left at height 7, by the two individuals on his right at heights of 4 and 6 and by the individual above at height 5.

Rows in the layout are numbered from top to bottom and columns are numbered from left to right.
