An uncertain number of persons are sitting in a straight line facing north. Three persons sit between P and Q. R sits second to the right of P. Only three people sit between Q and S. T is immediate to the left of P. R sits fifth from the right extreme ends of the row. X sits on the extreme end of the row. As many people sit between R and U as many between U and S. Y sits second to the left of V, who is an immediate neighbour of Q. Not more than two persons sit between V and S. Five people sit between S and X. As many people sit between S and W as many between W and X. Who among the following person sits sixth to the right of Q?

A) P
B) T
C) W
D) R
Let the positions be fixed step by step. - R is 5th from the right end. - R is second to the right of P, so P is 2 places left of R. - T is immediate left of P. - Three persons sit between P and Q. - Q is adjacent to V, and Y is second to the left of V. - X is at one extreme end. - Five people sit between S and X. - Also, the number of people between R and U equals the number between U and S, so U is midway between R and S. - From “only three people sit between Q and S” and “not more than two persons sit between V and S,” the arrangement gets constrained so that Q ends up 6 places to the left of R. Therefore, the person sitting sixth to the right of Q is R. So the correct option is (d) R.
