Practice Questions

Q1. A, B, C, D, E and F are sitting in a row. E and F are in the centre, A and B are at the ends, and C is sitting on the left of A. Who is sitting on the right of B?

A D Correct
B F
C E
D A

Explanation

Since A and B are at the two ends, and C is on the left of A, A must be at the right end of the row. Then C sits immediately to the left side of A. E and F occupy the two centre positions. That leaves the remaining position next to B for D. Therefore the person on the right of B is D. F and E are centre occupants, and A is at the far end, so none of them can be immediately to B's right.

Q2. Five students A, B, C, D and E are sitting in a row. D is to the right of E. B is to the left of E but to the right of A. D is to the left of C. Who is sitting at the extreme left?

A B
B E
C C
D A Correct

Explanation

The clues place B to the right of A and to the left of E, so the order begins A, B, E. D is to the right of E and to the left of C, so D and C must come after E in that order. The complete row from left to right is A, B, E, D, C. Therefore A is at the extreme left. B, E and C are all fixed to the right of A by the given conditions.

Q3. P, Q, R, S and T are sitting on a bench, and all are facing north. P is sitting next to Q. R is sitting next to S. S is not sitting with T, and T is not at the left end of the bench. R is in the second position from the right. P is to the right of Q and T. P and R are sitting together. In which position is P sitting?

A Between Q and S
B Between Q and R Correct
C Between S and T
D Between R and T

Explanation

Since R is second from the right and P sits with R, P must be beside R. P is to the right of both Q and T, and P is also next to Q, so Q must be immediately to the left of P. S sits with R, but S is not with T, which fixes the remaining arrangement as T, Q, P, R, S from left to right. Therefore P sits between Q and R. The placements between Q and S, S and T, and R and T do not match the fixed seating order.
