II). P ≤ K
III). J = R
A. Only I follow
B. Only II follows
C. Only III follows
D. Only I and II follow
E. Only II and III follow

Seating
10) Six persons viz. J, K, L, M, N and O are seated in a triangular table facing away from the center where three persons seated in the corners and three persons seated in the sides of the table, but not necessarily in the same order. L sits exactly opposite to J who sits to the immediate right of M. K sits to the immediate left of N and at one of the corners. Who among the following sits third to the right of K?
A. M
B. J
C. O
D. L
E. Cannot be determined
Answers :
The one who likes Kiwi sits second to the left of K. Two persons sit between K and the one who likes Apple. The one who likes Kiwi sits immediate left of P, who does not face away from the centre.
The one who likes Apricot sits third to the right of L. T sits second to the right of the one who likes Apricot. T faces thecentre. K and T are not immediate neighbours. S likes Mango. S sits third to the left of M. S and L are not immediate neighbours. R likes Orange. Two persons sit between V and the one who likes Pear. L does not like cherries.
Case 1 will be dropped because the one who likes Apricot sits third to the right of L. T sits second to the right of the one who likes Apricot.
1) Answer: D
2) Answer: B
3) Answer: D
4) Answer: D
5) Answer: E
Directions (6-9):
6) Answer: D
A > Q -> A < R = P < T ≤ Q -> False
R ≤ T -> R = P < T -> False
A < U -> A < R ≤ U -> True
7) Answer: D
S ≤ R -> S ≤ K=N = Q = O = R-> True
P ≤ K-> P ≤ J ≤ N= K-> True
J = R-> J ≤ N = Q = O = R-> False
8) Answer: B
J = Q -> J = N = Q -> True
A < N -> A ≤ B = K> N -> False
J > O -> J = N ≤ P = T ≥ O -> False
9) Answer: C
O < U -> O = L < N = K ≤ U -> True
I < K -> I = G < L < N = K -> True
M = I -> M < L > G = I -> False
