Question

M, N, O, P, X, Y, and Z are sitting around a circle facing the centre. Z is second to the left of O, who is to the immediate left of Y. M is third to the left of X. N is between P and X. Which of the following option is true?

• A. O is fourth to the left of N
• B. P is second to the left of X
• C. M is to the immediate right of Z
• D. N is second to the right of Z

Hint:

When seating arrangements are involved, start with known positions and use the clues to build the arrangement step by step.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Let's solve the problem step by step: 1. Z is second to the left of O, so O is two positions to the right of Z. 2. O is to the immediate left of Y, so Y is immediately to the right of O. 3. M is third to the left of X, so X is three positions to the right of M. 4. N is between P and X, so P and X are on either side of N. Based on these positions, we can visualize the seating arrangement as follows: \[ \text{Y - O - Z - M - P - N - X} \] From this arrangement, it is clear that M is to the immediate right of Z. Thus, the correct option is (3).
