Question

P. Q, R, S, T, U, V, W are sitting in a facing north
(A) P is fourth to right of T 
(B) W is fourth to the left of S 
(C) R and U, which are both at the ends are neighbours of Q and T respectively 
(D) W is immediate left of P and P is neighbor of 
Who are the immediate neighbours of W?

• A. Q and V
• B. V and R
• C. V and P
• D. U and P

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

To determine the immediate neighbours of W, let's solve the seating arrangement step by step.

1. First, analyze the information provided:
   • (A) P is fourth to the right of T. 
   • (B) W is fourth to the left of S.
   • (C) R and U, which are both at the ends, are neighbors of Q and T respectively.
   • (D) W is immediately to the left of P, and P is a neighbour.
2. We know R and U must be at the ends. Assume the positions from left to right:

Position	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8
Person	R							U

1. Since Q is a neighbor of R, place Q next to R:

Position	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8
Person	R	Q						U

1. Since T is a neighbour of U, place T next to U:

Position	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8
Person	R	Q				T		U

1. According to hint (A), P is fourth to the right of T. Place P in the correct position:

Position	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8
Person	R	Q	P			T		U

1. Now, from statement (D), W is immediately to the left of P, so place W:

Position	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8
Person	R	Q	P	W		T		U

1. From statement (B), W is fourth to the left of S. Therefore, place S in the correct position:

Position	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8
Person	R	Q	P	W	S	T	V	U

After following all these steps, the final arrangement is: R, Q, P, W, S, T, V, U. Hence, the immediate neighbours of W are V and P.

Conclusion: The correct answer is V and P.
