    Six students Luca, Minis, Nino, Otis, Paul, and Quba

    are sitting around a circular table facing the centre. Luca is sitting third to the left of Otis. Minis is sitting second to the right of Otis. Nino is sitting second to the right of Paul. Paul is the only one sitting between Otis and Quba. Who is sitting between Minis and Quba?
    A Luca Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Paul Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Nino Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Otis Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Since Luca is sitting third to the left of Otis, they can occupy the respective positions accordingly around the table. Minis is sitting second to the right of O, so, Minis will be seated to the immediate left of Luca. Nino is sitting second to the right of Paul. This means Nino can occupy the seat between Otis and Minis and Paul can sit to immediate left of Otis. Paul is the only one sitting between Quba and Otis. So, Quba sits to immediate left of Paul.   Final arrangement is below: From the above arrangement, it is clear that Luca is sitting between Minis and Quba. Hence, the correct answer is (A).
