Discussion
B, K, M, N, O, P, R and S are sitting around a circular table facing the centre but not necessarily in the same order. S sits second to the right of P. Only two persons sit between S and K. O sits opposite to B, who is not an immediate neighbour of K and P. N is the immediate neighbour of K and B. M sits third to the right of B. Which of the following statement is true ?
Answer: B
The true statement is N sits opposite to the one who sits to the immediate left of R.
Working through the clues gives one arrangement. Going round to the right of B: N, K, M, O, P, R, S, then back to B. Check: S is second to the right of P; two persons (B and N) sit between S and K; O is opposite B; B is not next to K or P; N is next to both K and B; M is third to the right of B.
In this arrangement P sits to the immediate left of R, and N sits opposite P, so the second statement is true. O's neighbours are M and P, not R; M's neighbours are K and O, not N; and S is third to the left of K, not third to the right.
