Only two persons are sitting to the right of O so O is 3rd from the right end.
| O | |||||||
N is 27 years old. Two persons are sitting between N and O. Two persons are sitting between M and the one who is 18 years old. M is not neighbor of N. M is not sitting at any end. So M is either immediate right or immediate left of O. As P is 2nd to the right of the one who is 18 years old. M is 21 years old.
| N | P | M | O | ||||
| 18 | 27 | 21 |
O’s age is twice of the S’s age so only one combination is left. S is 18 years old and O is 36 years old. Q is neighbor of S so Q is at the left end. One person is sitting between T and the one who is 36 years old so T is at the right end and R is immediate right of O.
| Q | S | N | P | M | O | R | T |
| 18 | 27 | 21 | 36 |
R is younger to O then R must be 33 years old. P is elder to Q but younger to T. So Q is 42 years old, P is 55 years old and T is 60 years old.
Here is the final arrangement:
| Q | S | N | P | M | O | R | T |
| 42 | 18 | 27 | 55 | 21 | 36 | 33 | 60 |
