Five men M, N, O, P and Q are sitting in a row facing north. M is sitting at one end and O is on the other end. Q sits to the immediate left of M and to the immediate right of P. Who sits third to the right of O?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
Let the empty position be numbered 1 - 5,
1. M is sitting at one end. Q sits to the immediate left of M and to the immediate right of P.
⇒ M sits on position 5, Q on 4 and P on 3.
2. O is on the other end.
⇒ O sit on position 1 and N occupies the last vacant seat.
Thus, Q sits third to the right of O.
