Z has number of chocolates two times of number of chocolates U has. S and Y have prime number of chocolates which is between 12 and 20. T sits to the immediate right of R. The sum of the chocolates of Y and T is equal to the number of chocolates X has. The number of chocolates which W has is multiple of 9 but less than Z and four more than R.

Answers:

Direction (1-5):

• Z sits at the extreme ends of the line.
• Only two persons sit between Z and X.
• U is an immediate neighbour of X.
• R sits third to the left of U.

Now we have 3 Cases.

• T sits to the immediate right of R.
• The number of persons sits between Y and W is same as between W and V.
• V sits one of the left of Z.
• S and Y have prime number of chocolates which is between 12 and 20.
• Hence S and Y have either 13 or 17 or 19.
• S has 2 more chocolates than Y.
• From the above condition Y has 17 chocolates and S has 19 chocolates.
• No two persons sit adjacent to each other according to the English alphabet.
• From the above condition Case 1 and Case 2 was dropped.

• The number of chocolates does not exist more than 44.
• The sum of the chocolates of Y and T is equal to the number of chocolates X has.
• T has a chocolate which is cube of the number of chocolates V has.
• From the above condition T has a cube number of Chocolates.
• T has either 1 or 8 or 27.
• Y+T=X (17+1=18, 17+8=25, 17+27=44)
• X has a square of the number of chocolates.
• From the above condition T has 8 chocolates and X has 25 chocolates.

• T has a chocolate which is cube of the number of chocolates V has.
• Hence V has 2 chocolates.
• U has chocolates which is double the number of chocolates T has.
• Hence U has 16 chocolates.
• Z has number of chocolates two times of number of chocolates U has.
• Hence Z has 32 chocolates.

• The number of chocolates which W has is multiple of 9 but less than Z and four more than R.
• R has the prime number of chocolates.
• Hence W has 27 chocolates and R has 23 chocolates.
• So the final arrangement is..
