    B If the data in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C If the data either in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D If the data in both statement I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E If the data in both statement I and II together are necessary to answer the question Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

      In this question, we have to look after both the statements. I. As per the first statement diagram will be as follows: Now as per this diagram only I option will get eliminated as we cannot determine who sits second to the right of O as there can be two possible cases. II. As per the second statement diagram will be as follows: Now as per this diagram, we cannot determine the person who sits second to the right of O, so the only statement 2 will get eliminated Now after both the statements getting individually eliminated we will combine both these statements and the final diagram will look like this: By this diagram, we can say that person who sits second to the right of O will be P So, answer will be Both These Statements
