    Solution

    We have, the one who like Germany sits third to the left of the one who sits second to the right of J. Only two persons are sitting between J and L. From the above condition, there are three possibilities. Case-1 Case-2 Again we have, The number of persons sitting to the left of L is the same as the right of the one who like Japan. Only two persons sit between the one who like Japan and M. From the above condition, case1 gets eliminated. Again we have, N sits third to the left of the one who like Canada. Neither M nor K like Canada. The one who like China sits immediate left of the one who like France. J does not like England. From the above condition, case3 gets eliminated.
