Question

P, Q, R, S, T, U, V and W are sitting round the circle and are facing the centre:
P is second to the right of T who is the neighbour of R and V. S is not the neighbour of P.
V is the neighbour of U. Q is not between S and W. W is not between U and S. U is the right of S.
Who is sitting adjacent to V? 

• A. U and T
• B. U and R
• C. T and P
• D. W and P

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

To solve this problem, we need to understand the seating arrangement based on the given conditions. Let's go through each statement step-by-step:

1. P is second to the right of T. T is the neighbor of R and V.
2. S is not the neighbor of P.
3. V is the neighbor of U.
4. Q is not between S and W. W is not between U and S.
5. U is to the right of S.

Now, we begin placing each person based on these constraints:

1. Place T and then place P such that P is second to the right of T.
2. Since T is the neighbor of R and V, position R and V around T. There are two openings, with T having two neighbors.
3. V must be placed so that it is next to U. Thus, we place U next to V.
4. From the second statement, S cannot be adjacent to P. This gives us information about where S can be placed.
5. Since U is supposed to be to the right of S, place S accordingly.
6. Finally, place Q such that it is not between S and W, while W is not positioned between U and S.

By this arrangement, the finalized seating positions are:

• T is the direct neighbor of R and U, satisfying T's neighbor condition with V and U.
• V satisfies being a neighbor to U, and is placed between U and R.
• S is placed where it does not disturb the neighbors of P, and U is to the right of S.
• Q and W are positioned such that their conditions are met.

From the arrangement, V is surrounded by U and T, making the correct option:

U and T
