P, Q, R, S and T are sitting around a circular table facing inside. S is to the immediate right of T and is second to the left of P. R is not between P and T. Who is second to the left of T?

P

The correct answer is Option (1) → P

Let us solve the seating step by step.

• Five people P, Q, R, S, T sit around a circular table facing inside
  Left = clockwise, Right = anticlockwise

Given conditions

1. S is to the immediate right of T
2. S is second to the left of P
3. R is not between P and T

Step 1: Fix positions

• Place P anywhere (reference point).
• Second to the left of P ⇒ S
• Immediate right of T ⇒ S

Arranging clockwise:

(This arrangement satisfies all conditions, including “R is not between P and T”.)

Step 2: Answer the question

Who is second to the left of T?

• Left of T (clockwise):
• 1st left → R
• 2nd left → P

Correct Answer: P
