Solution

The question is a bit complex and requires a step-by-step approach to solve. Let's start by arranging the people as per the given conditions:

  1. M sits 4th to the right of S. So, the arrangement becomes: S _ _ _ M.

  2. Five persons sit between M and X. So, the arrangement becomes: S _ _ _ M _ _ _ _ _ X.

  3. T sits at one of the positions left to S. So, T could be anywhere to the left of S.

  4. The number of persons sitting between M and U are same as between S and T. So, U could be to the right of M or T could be to the left of S with the same number of people in between.

  5. Four persons sit between S and U. So, the arrangement becomes: S _ _ _ _ U _ _ _ M _ _ _ _ _ X.

  6. No one sits to the right of N, who is immediate right to P. So, the arrangement becomes: S _ _ _ _ U _ _ _ M _ _ _ _ _ X P N.

  7. X is 3rd left to P. So, the arrangement becomes: S _ _ _ _ U _ _ _ M _ _ X P N.

  8. Not more than two persons sit between Q and U. So, Q could be anywhere to the left or right of U with not more than two people in between.

  9. Q is 2nd from one of the extreme ends. So, Q could be at the second position from either end.

Considering all these conditions, the final arrangement could be: Q _ T S _ _ _ _ U _ _ _ M _ _ X P N.

So, the person sitting at the extreme ends could be either Q or N.
