HackerEarth Transaction problem solution

YASH PAL, 31 July 202414 February 2026
In this HackerEarth Transaction, problem-solution BOB (Bank of Byteland) is the only bank in the land of byte and. Hence millions of transactions take place every day. You are currently the manager in charge of BOB. Being bored one day you took all the transactions of that day and asked your friend Codemonk to ask Q queries on the data.
 
Codemonk being an exceptionally good coder gave you two numbers M and N. He then asks you to tell him Nth transaction having cost more than or equal to M maintaining the order of transaction if it exists else print 1. Can you answer all of his queries?
