There are 8 persons, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V and W sitting around a rectangular table in such a way that four of them sit at four corners of the table while four sit in the middle of each of four sides. Persons who sit at the corners face outside the centre while those who sit in the middle of the side face inside.
Q sits second to the right of P. R sits third to the left of W. R faces inside. T sits third to the left of U. V sits second to the left of U. R is not an immediate neighbor of P.

Q. Who among the following faces Q?

Detailed Solution for MCQ: Seating Arrangements- 3 - Question 1

From the final arrangement, we get T faces Q.
Hence, Option C is correct.
References:

From the above reference, we get two different cases:
In case 1, P sits at the corner or in the middle of the side of the table.

References:
R is not an immediate neighbor of P.
R faces inside.
R sits third to the left of W.
Inferences:
