Who is to the immediate right of P among five persons P, Q, R, S and T facing North ?

Statements:

1.R is third to the left of Q and P is second to the right of R.

2. Q is to the immediate left of T who is second to the right of P.

  • A.1 alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
  • B.2 alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
  • C.Either 1 or 2 is sufficient
  • D.Neither 1 nor 2 is sufficient

Answer: C

Correct answer: Either 1 or 2 is sufficient

From statement 1, R third to the left of Q and P second to the right of R gives the order R, P, S, Q, T reading left to right, so S is immediately right of P. From statement 2, T second to the right of P with Q immediately left of T gives R, P, Q, T with S filling the remaining place - and again S sits immediately right of P. Each alone fixes the arrangement.
