    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.

    Ten persons sit in two parallel rows i.e., row I and row

    II. Five persons P, Q, R, S and T sit in row I. Five persons U, V, W, X and Y sit in row II. The person in row I face towards the south and the persons in row II face towards the north. The person of row I face the person of row II. Row I is to the north of row II. The distance between any two adjacent persons in the row is same. Who faces Q? Statement I: T sits second to the right of the one, who faces V. Only two persons sit between V and W. Only one person sits between the one, who faces W and S.Statement II: R sits 3rd to the left of the person, who faces U. U sits immediate left of Y. The one, who faces Y sits second to the left of Q. P sits second to the left of the one, who faces the one, who sits immediate right of W. V faces the one, who sits adjacent to S.
    A Data given in statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question while the data given in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Data given in statement I and II together is necessary to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Data given in statements I and II together is not sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Data given in statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question while the data given in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of the above Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    From statement I alone, T sits second to the right of the one, who faces V. Only two persons sit between V and W. Only one person sits between the one, who faces W and S. We get:

    Case 1: Image

    Case 2: Image

    So, from statement I alone, we cannot answer the above question. So, data given in statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

    From statement II alone, R sits 3rd to the left of the person, who faces U. U sits immediate left of Y. The one, who faces Y sits second to the left of Q. P sits second to the left of the one, who faces the one, who sits immediate right of W. V faces the one, who sits adjacent to S. We get: Image

    So, from statement II alone, we get Q faces W. Therefore, data given in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.
