Select the correct answerCertain number of persons are sitting in a row facing north. M sits 4th to the right of S. Five persons sit between M and X. T sits at one of the positions left to S. The number of persons sitting between M and U are same as between S and T. Q is 2ndfrom one of the extreme ends. Four persons sit between S and U. No one sits to the right of N, who is immediate right to P. X is 3rd left to P. Not more than two persons sit between Q and U.Which of the following represents the person sitting at extreme end?OptionsXUTMP
Solution
The question is a logical reasoning problem. To solve it, we need to arrange the people according to the given conditions.
- M sits 4th to the right of S. So the arrangement becomes: S _ _ _ M
- Five persons sit between M and X. So the arrangement becomes: S _ _ _ M _ _ _ _ _ X
- T sits at one of the positions left to S. So T could be anywhere to the left of S.
- 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.
- Four persons sit between S and U. So the arrangement becomes: S _ _ _ _ U _ _ _ M _ _ _ _ _ X
- No one sits to the right of N, who is immediate right to P. So the arrangement becomes: S _ _ _ _ U _ _ _ M _ _ _ _ _ X P N
- X is 3rd left to P. So the arrangement becomes: S _ _ _ _ U _ _ _ M _ _ X P N
- Not more than two persons sit between Q and U. So Q could be anywhere to the left of U with not more than two people in between.
- Q is 2nd from one of the extreme ends. So Q could be at the second position from either end.
By combining all these conditions, the final arrangement becomes: Q T S U _ M _ X P N
So, the person sitting at the extreme end could be either Q or N. But since Q and N are not in the options, we need to check the arrangement again.
If we consider the condition "T sits at one of the positions left to S" and "The number of persons sitting between M and U are same as between S and T", T should be immediate left to S and U should be immediate right to M.
So the final arrangement becomes: Q T S _ U M _ X P N
Now, the person sitting at the extreme end could be either Q or N. But since Q and N are not in the options, the answer could be "None of the above". But since there is no such option, the question seems to have insufficient data to determine the answer.
