Question

    Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given below. Eight persons O, P, X, Z, K, M, G and H are sitting on a circular table such that four persons are facing inwards while four persons are facing outwards alternatively, but not necessarily in the same order. G sits third to the left of H whereas M sits second to the right of H. Two persons are sitting between M and K. The number of persons between K and G is same as the number of persons between H and O, when counted from the right of K and O. Z neither sits facing outside nor adjacent to M but adjacent to P.

    If all the persons are made to sit in alphabetical order with respect to O in clockwise direction, then how many persons remain unchanged in their position, excluding O?

    A One Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Two Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Three Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D More than three Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    G sits third to the left of H whereas M sits second to the right of H. Two persons are sitting between M and K.  The number of persons between K and G is same as the number of persons between H and O, when counted from the right of K and O. Z neither sits facing outside nor adjacent to M but adjacent to P. Hence, case 2 gets eliminated
