Passage: Eight people A, B, C, D, P, Q, R and S are sitting around a circle facing the center. Only one person is sitting between P and S. Two people are sitting between S and D. Q sits second to the left of R and Q is one of the immediate neighbours of D. An equal number of people are sitting between A and C when counting from the left and right of A. A is the immediate neighbour of neither S nor P. B is sitting third to the left of P. Question: Who is sitting third to the right of P? A) Q B) A C) D D) C

Correct answer: A

Solution

Using the clues, P and S are placed with one person between them, and D is fixed two seats away from S. Then Q is positioned second to the left of R and adjacent to D, while B is placed third to the left of P. Completing the arrangement shows that A sits third to the right of P.

Seven persons P, Q, R, S, T, U and V of different ages, 6, 15, 19, 23, 30, 45 and 60 years, are sitting around a circular table facing the center. Note: No two consecutive letters are in alphabetical order. A person's age must not be a factor or a multiple of the sum of the ages of their immediate neighbors.
