Answers :

Directions (Q. 1-5):

  • All the persons are sitting along the circumference of the circular table at an equal distance between them.
  • The radius(r) of the circle is 70m and the circumference of the circle is 2Ï€r, where Ï€ = 22/7.

Therefore circumference = 2*22/7 *70 = 440, and there are 8 persons sits in a table. So 440/8 = 55m which is the distance between two successive person.

  • Distances are considered only on the circumference of the circular table.

  • Ram sits 110m away from Jack. There are two possible cases,EitherRam sits 110m away from left or right of Jack.

  • Rahul sits second to the right of Sanjay who is not an immediate neighbour of Jack.
  • Rahul is not an immediate neighbour of Ram.
  • For these above statements we have three possible cases for case 2 (case 2a, case 2b, case 2c).

  • Joseph sits 55m away from the right of Sanjay.

  • Raju and Sam sit opposite to each other.
  • Sam sits 110m to the left of Sambhu.
  • From the above statement we cannot fix the position for Raju and Sam in case 2a and case 2c. So this case is eliminated.
  • Ram doesn’t sits opposite to Rahul.
  • So, the Case 2b gets eliminated.
  • And finally, we get the following arrangement.

1) Answer: d

2) Answer: c

3) Answer: a

4) Answer: b

5) Answer: c

Directions (Q. 6-10):

  • All the persons are sitting along the perimeter of the square table at an equal distance between them.
  • The perimeter of the square is 320m and the perimeter of the square is 4a, where ‘a’ is the side of the square.
  • Distances are considered only on the perimeter of the square table.

Perimeter = 4a =320m (given)

There are 8 persons sitting in a square table. So 320/8 = 40m, which is the distance between two successive person in the group.

  • T sits 80m away from P who is not sits at any corner of the table.

  • Three person sits between P and V.

  • W sits at corner of the table and S sits 40m to the right of W.

  • R and Usit opposite to each other.
