Previous Year Questions

It is given that,

Eight persons P, Q, R, S, T, U, V and W sit around a square table, but not necessarily in the same order.

One person sits at each corner and faces inwards while one person sits along each side and faces outwards.

From statement I alone:

Two persons sit between P and Q.

The neighbours of U and W faces outwards. S sits immediate to the right of T.

Thus, no definite arrangement can be established.

So, statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

From statement II alone:

R faces T, who sits third to the right of V.

One person sits between P and W, who is not a neighbour of T.

Q and U are neighbours.

So, R sits second to the left of S.

So, statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.
