Question

    Five family members – Pinku, Qittu, Ritu, Simi, and

    Tani are sitting in a row facing North. Ritu is sitting exactly in the middle of the row. Tani is sitting to the immediate right and immediate left of Simi and Ritu, respectively. Qittu is not sitting at the extreme end. Who is sitting second to the left of Pinku?
    A Tani Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Ritu Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Qittu Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Simi Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Ritu is sitting exactly at the centre of the row. Tani is sitting to the immediate right and immediate left of Simi and Ritu, respectively. This means Simi at the extreme left end of the row. Since, Qittu is not sitting at the extreme end, so Qittu will occupy the 2nd position from the right end and Pinku will sit at the extreme right end.   Final arrangement is shown below. From above, it is clear that Ritu is sitting second to the left of Pinku. Hence, the correct answer is (B).
