Question

Seven people, A, B, C, D, P, Q and R, are sitting in a straight row facing north. C is not sitting immediately next to B. Only two people are sitting between R and C. Only one person is sitting to the right of B. No one is sitting to the left of Q. P is sitting to the immediate left of D. R is sitting immediately next to Q. Who is sitting second to the left of A?

A.

R

B.

C

C.

D

D.

B

Correct option is B

Let’s arrange the seats from left to right (since everyone is facing north).

  1. No one is sitting to the left of Q → Q is in position 1.

  2. R is sitting immediately next to Q → R must be in position 2.

  3. Only two people are sitting between R and C → With R in position 2, C must be in position 5.

  4. Only one person is sitting to the right of B → B must be in position 6.

  5. P is sitting to the immediate left of D → The only available adjacent positions are 3 and 4, so P = 3 and D = 4.

  6. The remaining seat (position 7) goes to A.

So the arrangement is:

  1. Q

  2. R

  3. P

  4. D

  5. C

  6. B

  7. A

Now, who is sitting second to the left of A?

A is in position 7.
Second to the left of position 7 is position 5.

Position 5 is C.
