Person - P, Q, R, S, T, U and V are sitting on a bench in a park and all are facing East.

1. Q is an extreme end and has T as his neighbour.

2. V is between T and U. 

3. S is sitting third from the South end. 

Condition 3 is violated in Case II, so it is eliminated.

4. R is on the immediate right of S.

The final arrangement is shown below:

Clearly, PQ are pairs of people are sitting at the extreme ends.

Hence, 'PQ' is the correct answer.

1) A and C are at extreme ends.

Case 1:

Case 2:

2) B is to the right of A and F is third to the left of C. As there is no place for B to the right of A, Case 1 gets eliminated.

3) E is between F and D.

Hence, B is sitting in second place from left in the row.

1) A and C are at extreme ends.

Case 1:

Case 2:

2) B is to the right of A and F is third to the left of C. As there is no place for B to the right of A, Case 1 gets eliminated.

3) E is between F and D.

Hence, B is sitting in second place from left in the row.

Here, persons are H, K, M, N, O, Q, R and V ; fruits are Apple, Banana, Grapes, Guava, Kiwi, Orange, Mango and Peach.

1) M sits second to the right of R who sits on row 1.

2) N sits diagonally opposite to the person who likes Mango.

3) The person who likes Banana sits opposite to the person who sits immediate left of N.

4) V sits immediate right of the person who likes Kiwi.

5) K likes Grapes sits opposite to Q. So, case – 3 is eliminated.

6) Neither H nor Q likes Mango.

7) The person who likes Apple sits opposite to the person who likes Peach. Therefore, case 1(a) and case 1(b) are eliminated.

8) H does not sit immediate left to the person who likes Apple.

9) The person who likes Orange sits opposite to the person who sits immediate left to Q. Hence, the final arrangement is as follows

Hence, the correct pair is NH.

Here, persons are H, K, M, N, O, Q, R and V ; fruits are Apple, Banana, Grapes, Guava, Kiwi, Orange, Mango and Peach.

1) M sits second to the right of R who sits on row 1.

2) N sits diagonally opposite to the person who likes Mango.

3) The person who likes Banana sits opposite to the person who sits immediate left of N.

4) V sits immediate right of the person who likes Kiwi.

5) K likes Grapes sits opposite to Q. So, case – 3 is eliminated.

6) Neither H nor Q likes Mango.

7) The person who likes Apple sits opposite to the person who likes Peach. Therefore, case 1(a) and case 1(b) are eliminated.

8) H does not sit immediate left to the person who likes Apple.

9) The person who likes Orange sits opposite to the person who sits immediate left to Q. Hence, the final arrangement is as follows

Since, V sits opposite to M and in his immediate right K sits.

Hence, the correct answer is K.

Total eight friends facing north:-  A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H

1) E is third to the left of G. G is sitting at one of the corners.

2) F is sitting between D and G.

3) H is third to the left of C.

4) B is sitting between H and A.

Hence,  'C' is sitting between A and E.

The pattern followed here is:

Given: Eight people, A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H are sitting in a straight line, facing north.

1) Only three people sit to the right of A.

2) Only one person sits between A and B

3) Only four people sit between B and D.  F sits to the immediate right of D.

5) C is neither an immediate neighbour of B nor D.

6) E sits second to the right of G.

7) H sits in the vacant place.

Clearly, three person are sit between H and A.

Hence, the correct answer is "Three".

Solution:

1. Seven friends O, P, Q, R, S, T and U are watching a movie sitting in a row.

2. S is sitting at one extreme end.

3. Q is sitting second to the right of S.

4. P is sitting between O and Q. O is not at any extreme end.

5. U is not sitting at any extreme end.

6. R is sitting immediate left of T.

So, the final arrangement will be as shown below:

Hence, ‘P’ is sitting in the middle.

Seven friends K, L, M, N, O, P and Q are sitting in a straight line.

1. K is second from the right end.

2. P is third from the left end and is to the immediate left of O.

3. Only Q is between P and L.

4. Two friends are sitting between M and O.

5. M is at one of the ends.

6. K is not sitting adjacent to O.

Only one person N is left and N will occupy the vacant position.

The final arrangement will be as shown below:

Clearly, N is sitting at the third place from the right end.

hence, 'N' is the correct answer.

Total five friends facing south:-  P, Q, R, S and T

1) Q is sitting in the centre position.

2) P is sitting at the west end.

3) Two persons are sitting between P and R.

4) T and R are sitting on one side of Q.

The final sitting arrangement is

Hence, 'S' is sitting between Q and P.

Six Persons: S, T, U, V, W and X

Facing: North

1) W and T are sitting at the fourth position from the left end and the right end, respectively.

2) U and X are not the immediate neighbours of T and W.

3) S is sitting at the fifth position from the right end.

So, final sitting arrangement:

Hence, “V” is sitting at the second position from the right end.

Given: Six friends A, B, C, D, E and F are sitting on a bench facing north.

(1): B is sitting at one extreme end of the bench. So, there have two possibilities

Case(I): 

Case (II):

(2): F is an immediate neighbour of both just D and B.

Case(I):

Case (II):

(3): A is sitting second to the right of C, who is an immediate neighbour of D. i.e. A is sitting second to the right of C and C is an immediate neighbour of D.

So, Case (II) is eliminated. 

Case (I):

Then, the final arrangement is:

Therefore, A is sitting at the other extreme end. 

Hence, the correct answer is A.

Let us consider that all of them are facing north.

1. Seven friends O, P, Q, R, S, T and U are watching a movie sitting in a row.

2. S is sitting at one extreme end.

3. Q is sitting second to the right of S.

4. P is sitting between O and Q.

5. U is not sitting at any extreme end.

6. R is sitting to the left of T.

Total 6 persons facing north:-  Amit, Gaurav, Hatim, Varun, Yukti and Zaid.

1) Hatim is fourth to the left of Yukti.

2) Yukti is sitting at one corner.

3) Gaurav is fourth to the left of Amit.

4) Zaid is third to the right of Gaurav.

5) Only Varun is left which is sitting in a blank place.

Hence, 'Hatim' is sitting in the second place to the left of Zaid.

Hence, the correct answer is "Hatim".

1) Meena is sitting at the west end and Teena is sitting at the east end.

2) Beena is sitting to the left of Leena and to the right of Meena.

3) Leena and Reena are sitting together next to each other.

Hence, "Reena" is second from the east end.
