Test: Mental Ability (Seating Arrangements) - Software Development MCQ

The logic that follows here is 

1) D is sitting to the immediate left of A.

2) C is sitting to the immediate right of B.

3) B is not sitting adjacent to A.

The final seating arrangement will be

Second to the right of D is 'E'.

Hence, the correct answer is E.

P, Q, R, S, T, V, W, and Z are sitting around a circle facing at the centre not necessarily in this same order.

i) T is second to the right of R who is third to the right of P.

Mistake Points

Who is used for the second person in a connecting statement.

For example: 

T is second to the right of R who is third to the right of P.

Here, who is used for R and not for T.

ii) S is second to the left of P and fourth to the right of Q.

iii) V who is not an immediate neighbour of P. (This means V cannot sit immediate left or right of P).

iv) Z is third to the right of V 

Thus we can see Z sit second to the right of T.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

P, Q, R, S, T, V, W, and Z are sitting around a circle facing at the centre not necessarily in this same order.

i) T is second to the right of R who is third to the right of P.

Mistake Points

Who is used for the second person in a connecting statement.

For example: 

T is second to the right of R who is third to the right of P.

Here, who is used for R and not for T.

ii) S is second to the left of P and fourth to the right of Q.

iii) V who is not an immediate neighbour of P. (This means V cannot sit immediate left or right of P).

iv) Z is third to the right of V 

Thus we can see S is immediate left of Z.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

P, Q, R, S, T, V, W, and Z are sitting around a circle facing at the centre not necessarily in this same order.

i) T is second to the right of R who is third to the right of P.

Mistake Points

Who is used for the second person in a connecting statement.

For example: 

T is second to the right of R who is third to the right of P.

Here, who is used for R and not for T.

ii) S is second to the left of P and fourth to the right of Q.

iii) V who is not an immediate neighbour of P. (This means V cannot sit immediate left or right of P).

iv) Z is third to the right of V 

Thus we can see R is second to the right of W

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

1) Medha is sitting diagonally opposite Radha.

We can randomly place Medha on any seat and then we can place Radha opposite her.

2) Medha is on Seema’s left.

3) Raman is next to Seema and opposite Govind.

Raman must be to Seema's right as Medha is to her left.

4) Govind is on Chandra’s right.

Implies, Chandra is sitting between Govind and Radha.

5) Shanti is not on Medha’s right but is opposite to Shashi.

Implies, Shanti is to the immediate left of Medha, and Sashi is between Radha and Raman.

Hence, "Seema" is opposite Chandra.

Persons: A, B, C, D, E and F

1) E is sitting immediate left to the B.

2) A is sitting fourth right to the B.

3) F is sitting between A and D.

4) Final Sitting arrangement.

Hence, “C” is sitting immediate left to the D.

Q, R, S, T, U, and V are seated in a straight line facing North.

i) S is second to the right of T.

ii) T is second to the right of Q.

iii) R is to the immediate left of Q

iv) R is to the immediate left of Q and is second to the left of V.

Thus we can see there are two persons seating between S and V.

Hence, the correct answer is "Two".

Q, R, S, T, U, and V are seated in a straight line facing North.

i) S is second to the right of T.

ii) T is second to the right of Q.

iii) R is to the immediate left of Q

iv) R is to the immediate left of Q and is second to the left of V.

Thus we can see Q is sitting Fourth to the left of S.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

Q, R, S, T, U, and V are seated in a straight line facing North.

i) S is second to the right of T.

ii) T is second to the right of Q.

iii) R is to the immediate left of Q

iv) R is to the immediate left of Q and is second to the left of V.

Thus we can see R and S is sitting at the extreme ends.

Hence, the correct answer is "RS".

A, B, C, D, E and F are sitting in a circle facing towards centre.

i) A is second to the left of D and second to the right of E.

ii) D is between F and B.

The final arrangement is:

Thus C is facing towards D.

Hence, the correct answer is "C".
