Question
Who likes
Daisy? Answer the questions based on the information given below. Eight persons P, Q, R, S, T, U, V and W are sitting around a circular table facing inside but not necessarily in the same order. All of them likes different flowers viz. Lily, Rose, Marigold, Daisy, Jasmine, Lavender, Lris and Pansy but not necessary in same order. Only one person sits between T and the one who likes Lily. P sits second to the left of the one who likes Lily. W is an immediate neighbour of R. R is not an immediate neighbour of P or T and he does not likes Lavender. T sits second to the left of the one who likes Lavender. Only three people sit between the one who likes Rose and the one who likes Marigold. U sits second to the left of the one who likes Marigold. W does not likes Daisy. The one who likes Daisy is not an immediate neighbor of W. S sits on the immediate left of the one who likes Daisy. The one who likes Lris sits on the immediate right of the one who likes Pansy. Only two persons sit between V and the one who has likes Lavender. The one who likes Rose sits second to the right of W.Solution
Only one person sits between T and the one who likes Lily. P sits second to the left of the one who likes Lily. If the one who likes Lily sits at place no.1, then P sits at place no. 7 and T sits at place no. 3. T sits second to the left of the one who likes Lavender. So, the one who likes Lavender at place no. 5.
Only two persons sit between V and the one who has likes Lavender. From this statement, we will have two cases: V will sit either at place no. 2 or 8. W is an immediate neighbour of R. R is not an immediate neighbour of P or T and he does not likes Lavender. The one who likes Rose sits second to the right of W. R cannot sit at place no. 6, 5, 4 and 8. So, only place left for him is place no. 1. As W is an immediate neighbour of R. So, W will sit either at place no. 8 or 2. The one who likes Rose sits either at place no. 4 or 2. Only three people sit between the one who likes Rose and the one who likes Marigold. So, the one who likes Marigold sits either at place no. 6 or 8. U sits second to the left of the one who likes Marigold. So, U sits either at place no. 4 or 6. Case-1
CASE-2
W does not likes Daisy. The one who likes Daisy is not an immediate neighbor of W. S sits on the immediate left of the one who likes Daisy. The one who likes Lris sits on the immediate right of the one who likes Pansy. Case 1 will get discarded as the one who likes Daisy cannot sit at place no. 7 and 8. If the one who likes Daisy sits either at place no. 4 or 3, then there is no place for S as S sits on the immediate left of the one who likes Daisy In case 2, if the one who likes Daisy sits at place no. 6, then S sits at place no. 5. The one who likes Lris and the one who likes Pansy sit at place no. 3 and 2 respectively Only person left for place no. 4 is Q. Only flowers left for P is Jasmine Case-1
CASE-2
Final arrangement as shown below:
A man can row 25/2 km an hour in still water and he finds that it takes him thrice as long to row up as to row down the river. The rate of stream is:
The speed of a boat is that of the current of water is 30:7. The boat goes along with the current in 4 hours 12 minutes. It will come back in
A boat takes half the time to move a certain distance downstream than upstream. the ratio of the boat's speed in still water and that of the current is.
A man can row at 30 km/hr in still water. If the velocity of current is 6 km/hr and it takes him 1 hour to row to a place and come back, how far is the ...
A man can row at 2 kmph in still water. If the velocity of current is 1 kmph and it takes him 4 hour to row to a place and come back, how far is the place?
