Answers :
Directions (1-5):
Here we have statements,
A certain number of persons were sitting in a circular table and all are facing the centre.
A sits 5th to the left of P.
D neither sits adjacent to P nor A.
Q sits adjacent to A and third to the right of C. Here two possible cases are formed i.e., case 1 and case 2.
As many persons sit between P and C is same as between Q and R where Q sits fourth to left of R.
In this statement case 2 is violated because R cannot be placed 4th to the right of Q. Thus, case 1 is only possible.
The person who sits to the immediate left of C is 2nd to the right of B.
No two persons sit adjacent to each other as in English alphabetical order.
The number of persons sits between S who is adjacent to B and one who sitsimmediate left of A is same as the number of persons between D and R.
Three persons sit between B and E.
Based on the given conditions we have the final arrangement as follows:
1) Answer: C
