Question
Direction: Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given below. There are eight persons M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, and T sitting around a circular table facing towards the center of table. T sits immediate left of the one who sits second to the right of M. N is immediate neighbour of S. Only one person sits between M and O. There are three persons sit between Q and N. Only two people sit between Q and P. R is not an immediate neighbour of P.Who among the following sits third to the left of S?
Solution
To solve this problem, we need to arrange the people according to the given conditions.
- Start with M, since it's the first person mentioned. Place M on the table.
- The person who is second to the right of M is two places to M's right. Let's call this person X for now.
- T sits immediately to the left of X. Place T to the left of X.
- Only one person sits between M and O. O can be either to the left or right of M. But since T is already to the right of M, O must be to the left of M.
- N is an immediate neighbour of S. We don't know where S is yet, so let's move to the next clue.
- There are three persons between Q and N. Since we don't know where N is yet, we can't place Q yet.
- Only two people sit between Q and P. We still can't place Q or P.
- R is not an immediate neighbour of P. We still can't place R or P.
At this point, we have M, O, X, and T placed. We know that N is next to S, Q is three places from N and two places from P, and R is not next to P.
Let's try placing S to the right of T. Then N would be either to the left or right of S. But if N is to the right of S, then Q can't be three places away because T is in the way. So N must be to the left of S.
Then Q can be three places to the right of N, which is to the right of T. Then P can be two places to the right of Q, which is to the right of M.
Finally, R can't be next to P, so R must be to the left of N.
So the final arrangement is: M - O - R - N - S - T - Q - P - M
The person who sits third to the left of S is R.
