Five children P, Q, R, S and T are sitting in a row facing north. Q is sitting to the immediate left of S. There are exactly three children sitting between R and T. P is on the immediate left of T. Arrange them from left to right?
(A) P
(B) Q
(C) R
(D) S
(E) T
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → (C), (B), (D), (A), (E)
All five face north, so their left is the left of the row as seen in the picture; the five places are numbered 1 to 5 from the left.
Three children sit between R and T, so R and T take the two ends, places 1 and 5.
P is immediately left of T, so T cannot be in place 1; T is in place 5, P in place 4 and R in place 1.
Q is immediately left of S, so Q and S take the places left, 2 and 3, in that order.
