Six persons M, N, O, P, Q and R are sitting in two rows, three in each. Q is not at the end of any row. P is second to the left of R, O is the neighbour of Q and is sitting diagonally opposite to P. N is the neighbour of R. On the basis of above information, who is facing N ?
Answer:
(b)
Let`s analyze the given information and draw a diagram to understand the seating arrangement: “` 1 2 3 1 M N O 2 P Q R “` From the given information, we can infer the following: – Q is not at the end of any row, so Q must be sitting in the middle of row 2. “` 1 2 3 1 M N O 2 Q “` – P is second to the left of R. So, R must be at either end of row 2 and P must be in the middle of row 2. “` 1 2 3 1 M N O 2 P R “` – O is the neighbor of Q and is sitting diagonally opposite to P. So, O must be sitting in row 1 and diagonally opposite to P, which means O must be sitting in the right corner of row 1. N is the neighbor of R, so N must be sitting next to R in row 2. “` 1 2 3 1 M N O 2 P R “` From the above diagram, we can see that N is facing O. Therefore, the answer is O.
