Who amongst the following is the Professor?
Answer: D
Correct answer: K
All eight face the centre, so each person’s left is the next seat clockwise and their right the next seat anticlockwise.
Place K; F sits two to K’s left and M two to K’s right. H, the Scientist, must be beside K, and E four seats from H - and of the two ways of doing that, only one lets the Engineer sit two seats from E without being G or J, who must be neighbours. The Columnist then sits on the Engineer’s right, the Lawyer two to the Columnist’s right, the Financial Analyst on F’s left, the Professor beside the Engineer, and the Chartered Accountant two seats from G.
Clockwise the table reads K (Professor) → H (Scientist) → F (Doctor) → G (Financial Analyst) → J (Lawyer) → E (Chartered Accountant) → M (Columnist) → L (Engineer).
The Professor must sit beside the Engineer, L. Of L’s two neighbours one is the Columnist M, so the Professor is K.
