Question

    The question given below consists of two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read all the statements and answer the question.

    Six persons J, K, L, M, N and O sit around a circular

    table and face away from the centre. The distance between two adjacent persons is same. Who sits second to the right of O? Statement I: L sits immediate right of O. Only two persons sit between L and N. M doesn't sit adjacent to N. K doesn't sit second to the right of J. Statement II: M sits second to the left of N. J sits adjacent to N. L sits immediate right of O. K sits neither adjacent to O nor L.
    A Data given in both statement I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Data given in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Data given in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Data given in both statement I and II together are necessary to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Data given in either statement I or II alone is sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    From Statement I, L sits immediate right of O. Only two persons sit between L and N. M doesn't sit adjacent to N. K doesn't sit second to the right of J, we get: So, from Statement I alone, we get M sits second to the right of O. From Statement II, M sits second to the left of N. J sits adjacent to N. L sits immediate right of O. K sits neither adjacent to O nor L, we get: From statement II alone, we get M sits second to the right of O. Therefore, data given in either statement I or II alone is sufficient to answer the question.
