Question: A, P, R, X, S and Z are sitting in a row. S and Z are in the center. A and P are at the ends. R is sitting to the left of A. Who is to the right of P?

A. A               B. X               C. S               D. Z

Solution:

A has to be at the right end otherwise there would be no place to A’s left for R to occupy. S and Z are seated at the central positions, although the specific order in which they are seated is not mentioned. This leaves only 1 space vacant, i.e., next to P and only 1 person, i.e., X. Hence the answer is B.

Question: 6 friends are sitting in a circle and facing the center of the circle. Deepa is between Prakash and Pankaj. Priti is between Mukesh and Lalit. Prakash and Mukesh are opposite to each other. Who is sitting right to Prakash?

A. Mukesh     B. Pankaj       C. Pankaj       D. Lalit

Solution:       

Fixing Prakash’s position, we find Mukesh’s position. Deepa is between Pankaj and Prakash, and this can be on either side of Prakash. Now, Priti is between Mukesh and Lalit. This can happen when they are on the opposite side of Prakash. So, either Lalit or Deepa will be to the right of Prakash. So the correct option is D.
