Circular Seating Arrangement Questions and Answers

Important Instructions
Direction for [ Question No: 161 To 163 ] :

In a class there are seven students (including boys and girls) A, B, C, D, E, F and G. They sit on three benches I, II and III. Such that at least two students on each bench and at least one girl on each bench. C who is a girl student, does not sit with A, E and D. F the boy student sits with only B. A sits on the bench I with his best friends. G sits on the bench III. E is the brother of C.

161.

Which of the following is the group of girls ?

Answer: C

Correct answer: BCD

F sits with only B, so that bench holds exactly those two. A is on bench I and G on bench III. C will not sit with A, E or D, so she must join G on bench III, which leaves D and E to sit with A. The benches are therefore I: A, D, E - II: F, B - III: C, G. Each bench needs a girl: C covers III, so B must be the girl on II, and one of A and D the girl on I - D, since the group of girls named is B, C and D.

C is named a girl; B must be one, because bench II holds only F and B and F is a boy; and D must be one, because bench I holds A, D and E, and E is C’s brother. So B, C and D is the group that is certainly all girls.

Who sits with C ?

Answer: C

Correct answer: G

F sits with only B, so that bench holds exactly those two. A is on bench I and G on bench III. C will not sit with A, E or D, so she must join G on bench III, which leaves D and E to sit with A. The benches are therefore I: A, D, E - II: F, B - III: C, G. Each bench needs a girl: C covers III, so B must be the girl on II, and one of A and D the girl on I - D, since the group of girls named is B, C and D.

C cannot sit with A, E or D, and the F–B bench holds only those two, so the only bench left to her is bench III - where G sits.

On which bench there are three students ?

Answer: A

Correct answer: Bench I

F sits with only B, so that bench holds exactly those two. A is on bench I and G on bench III. C will not sit with A, E or D, so she must join G on bench III, which leaves D and E to sit with A. The benches are therefore I: A, D, E - II: F, B - III: C, G. Each bench needs a girl: C covers III, so B must be the girl on II, and one of A and D the girl on I - D, since the group of girls named is B, C and D.

Bench II holds F and B alone and bench III holds C and G, so the remaining three - A, D and E - must all be on bench I.

Direction for [ Question No: 164 To 167 ] :

Six girls are sitting in a circle facing to the centre of the circle. They are P, Q, R, S, T and V. T is not between Q and S but some other one. P is next to the left of V. R is 4th to the right of P.

Answer: C

Correct answer: R is second to the left of T

Facing the centre, each girl’s right is the next seat anticlockwise and her left the next seat clockwise. P next to V’s left puts P one seat clockwise of V; R fourth to P’s right puts R two seats clockwise of P. Filling in the rest gives the circle, clockwise, as V → P → S → R → Q → T, with T next to V and so not between Q and S.

Two seats to T’s left - clockwise - brings us to V and then P, not R, so that statement is false. The other three hold: S is next to R’s right, T is next to V’s right, and P is two seats to R’s right.

If P and R interchange their positions then which of the following pair will sit together ?

Answer: C

Correct answer: VT

Facing the centre, each girl’s right is the next seat anticlockwise and her left the next seat clockwise. P next to V’s left puts P one seat clockwise of V; R fourth to P’s right puts R two seats clockwise of P. Filling in the rest gives the circle, clockwise, as V → P → S → R → Q → T, with T next to V and so not between Q and S.

Exchanging P and R gives the circle V, R, S, P, Q, T. Of the pairs offered, only V and T are then neighbours - and they were neighbours before the swap too, since neither of them moved.

Answer: D

Correct answer: To the immediate right of V

Facing the centre, each girl’s right is the next seat anticlockwise and her left the next seat clockwise. P next to V’s left puts P one seat clockwise of V; R fourth to P’s right puts R two seats clockwise of P. Filling in the rest gives the circle, clockwise, as V → P → S → R → Q → T, with T next to V and so not between Q and S.

The seat anticlockwise from V - her right - is T’s, so T sits immediately to V’s right. She is not next to Q’s right, nor between Q and R.

Which one is sitting just right to the V?

Answer: B

Correct answer: T

Facing the centre, each girl’s right is the next seat anticlockwise and her left the next seat clockwise. P next to V’s left puts P one seat clockwise of V; R fourth to P’s right puts R two seats clockwise of P. Filling in the rest gives the circle, clockwise, as V → P → S → R → Q → T, with T next to V and so not between Q and S.

V’s right is the next seat anticlockwise, and T occupies it. P is on V’s left.

Direction for [ Question No: 168 To 170 ] :

Each of these questions are based on the information given below :

 1) 8 persons E, F, G, H, I, J, K and L are seated around a square table - two on each side.

 2) There are 3 ladies who are not seated next to each other.

 3) J is between L and F.

 4) G is between I and F.

 5) H, a lady member is second to the left of J.

 6) F, a male member is seated opposite to E, a lady member.

 7) There is a lady member between F and I.

168.

Who among the following is to the immediate left of F ?

Answer: C

Correct answer: J

J sits between L and F, and G between I and F, so F has J on one side and G on the other, giving the run I – G – F – J – L. H is two seats to J’s left (clockwise), and F sits opposite E, which places the last three. Clockwise the eight seats read I → G → F → J → L → H → K → E. The lady between F and I is G, so the three ladies are G, H and E - and no two of them are neighbours, as required.

F’s left is the next seat clockwise, which is J’s. G sits on F’s right.

Answer: D

Correct answer: Both are male

J sits between L and F, and G between I and F, so F has J on one side and G on the other, giving the run I – G – F – J – L. H is two seats to J’s left (clockwise), and F sits opposite E, which places the last three. Clockwise the eight seats read I → G → F → J → L → H → K → E. The lady between F and I is G, so the three ladies are G, H and E - and no two of them are neighbours, as required.

The three ladies are G, H and E. J and K are not among them, so both are male - as is F, which the information states outright.

170.

How many persons are seated between K and F ?

Answer: C

Correct answer: 3

J sits between L and F, and G between I and F, so F has J on one side and G on the other, giving the run I – G – F – J – L. H is two seats to J’s left (clockwise), and F sits opposite E, which places the last three. Clockwise the eight seats read I → G → F → J → L → H → K → E. The lady between F and I is G, so the three ladies are G, H and E - and no two of them are neighbours, as required.

Counting from K to F the short way round gives E, I and G in between; counting the other way gives H, L and J. Either route has three people between them, since they sit directly opposite each other at a table of eight.
