The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

To determine who is second to the left of Rajesh, we must utilize the given seating arrangement descriptions. However, the available data does not mention Rajesh, making it impossible to ascertain his exact position in reference to the others. Here's the breakdown:
  • Rohit is third to the left of Ram.
  • Rohan is fourth to the right of Ram.
  • Mohit is fourth to the left of Suresh, who is second to the right of Ram.
  • Sohan is third to the right of Shyam.
  • Mohan is not an immediate neighbor of Ram.
Since Rajesh's position is not mentioned, the arrangement cannot be completed to answer the question. Therefore, the correct response in this scenario is:
Data inadequate

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

The seating arrangement problem requires us to determine the position of everyone based on the given clues:
  • Rohit is third to the left of Ram.
  • Rohan is fourth to the right of Ram.
  • Mohit is fourth to the left of Suresh who is second to the right of Ram.
  • Sohan is third to the right of Shyam.
  • Mohan is not an immediate neighbour of Ram.
First, we place Ram and then deduce positions:
  1. Position Ram anywhere; say at position 1 (for simplification).
  2. Suresh is second to the right of Ram, i.e., position 3.
  3. Mohit is fourth to the left of Suresh, i.e., position 9.
  4. Rohit is third to the left of Ram, i.e., position 8.
  5. Rohan is fourth to the right of Ram, i.e., position 5.
  6. Mohan isn't adjacent to Ram, ruling out positions 2 and 9.
  7. Using remaining options and additional clues about Sohan and Shyam, continue arranging.
Unfortunately, based on logic and permutations, Mohan's exact next-to-right cannot be definitively determined. Hence, the data is inadequate.

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

To solve the problem, begin by setting up the circular seating arrangement based on the information provided:
  1. Start with Ram; position him anywhere as the reference point.
  2. Rohit is third to the left of Ram. So, place Rohit accordingly.
  3. Rohan is fourth to the right of Ram. Thus, Rohan's position is set.
  4. Suresh is second to the right of Ram. Locate Suresh in the correct spot.
  5. Mohit is fourth to the left of Suresh. This allows us to place Mohit correctly.
  6. Sohan is third to the right of Shyam. This will help in placing both Sohan and Shyam.
  7. Finally, Mohan is not an immediate neighbour of Ram, aiding Mohan's placement.
Through these placements, Sohan's position relative to others can be determined. Now, find the person who is third to the right of Sohan. As per the arrangement, that individual is Rakesh.
Thus, the correct answer is: Rakesh.

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

To determine Rakesh’s position with respect to Rohan, we analyze the given seating arrangement information:
  • Nine people: Ram, Shyam, Rohit, Mohit, Rohan, Sohan, Mohan, Rakesh, and Suresh are sitting in a circle facing the center.
  • Rohit is third to the left of Ram. Therefore, positions based on the circle's clockwise assumption are Ram, ?, ?, Rohit.
  • Rohan is fourth to the right of Ram. This indicates Rohan's position as Ram, ?, Rohan (fourth position clockwise).
  • Suresh is second to the right of Ram. Thus, Suresh is the second position clockwise from Ram.
  • Mohit is fourth to the left of Suresh, which places Mohit in the fifth position clockwise from Ram (counting counterclockwise).
  • Sohan is third to the right of Shyam, so Sohan is on the third position clockwise from Shyam.
  • Mohan is not an immediate neighbor of Ram.
Positioning these details in a circle, Ram's left side seating arrangement becomes clear with the following: Ram, Rohit (third left), Mohit (fifth position if we count counterclockwise from Suresh), and Rohan (fourth right) with Suresh seated second clockwise from Ram.
Upon arranging, let's analyze:
  • If Ram is position 1, then:
    1Ram
    5Rohan
    6Suresh
    9Rohit
    4Mohit
  • Therefore, finding Sohan, Shyam, and Mohan isn't necessary as only Rakesh's position relative to Rohan is needed.
  • This shows Rakesh in the third position, assuming circular permutation and individuals filling available gaps after placing determined ones.
  • From Rohan's perspective, Rakesh is then fourth to the left as we consider their engaged sequence: Rohan at 5 and Rakesh at 9 when sitting circularly.
This verifies Rakesh's position as fourth to the left of Rohan, which matches option: Fourth to the left.

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

To determine who is third to the right of Mohan, let's analyze the seating arrangement based on the given conditions:
  • Ram is the reference point with all members facing the center.
  • Rohit is third to the left of Ram, placing Rohit at position 7 if Ram is at position 10.
  • Rohan is fourth to the right of Ram, placing Rohan at position 2.
  • Suresh is second to the right of Ram, placing Suresh at position 12.
  • Mohit is fourth to the left of Suresh, along the circle it places Mohit at position 9.
  • Mohan is not an immediate neighbor of Ram, so Mohan cannot be at positions 11 or 13.
  • Sohan is third to the right of Shyam.
Assigning positions based on the above information, starting with Ram at position 1:
  • Ram is at position 1.
  • Suresh at position 3.
  • Rohit at position 10.
  • Rohan at position 5.
  • Mohit at position 12.
Now, consider the clue:
  • Sohan is third to the right of Shyam.
Let’s fill in:
  • If Sohan is at position 4, then Shyam is at position 1. But Ram cannot be in the same position. Hence, Sohan cannot be at 4.
    If Sohan is at position 6, then Shyam is at position 3. Suresh is already there, implying Sohan can’t be here.
    If Sohan is at position 8, then Shyam is at position 5.
  • Thus, assigning positions logically, Sohan goes to position 8 and Shyam goes to position 5.
  • Finally, with available positions, Mohan should go to position 11.
Having determined the arrangement:

PositionName
1Ram
2Rohan
3Suresh
4
5Shyam
6
7
8Sohan
9Mohit
10Rohit
11Mohan

From the above arrangement, the individual who is third to the right of Mohan (position 11) is Shyam (position 5).

  • Suresh

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

To determine who is fifth to the right of Rohan, we need to analyze the seating arrangement provided:
  • "Rohit is third to the left of Ram."
  • "Rohan is fourth to the right of Ram."
  • "Mohit is fourth to the left of Suresh who is second to the right of Ram."
  • "Sohan is third to the right of Shyam."
  • "Mohan is not an immediate neighbour of Ram."
Solution Steps:
  1. Assume Ram is sitting at position 1 in the circle (arbitrarily chosen for simplicity since the circle arrangement can be rotated without changing relative positions).
  2. From point 1, Suresh is second to the right. So, Suresh is at position 3.
  3. Mohit is fourth to the left of Suresh, which places Mohit at position 7.
  4. "Rohan is fourth to the right of Ram", placing Rohan at position 5.
  5. "Rohit is third to the left of Ram", placing Rohit at position 9.
  6. "Sohan is third to the right of Shyam." We don't know Shyam's exact position yet, but have enough info for now.
  7. "Mohan is not an immediate neighbour of Ram", ruling him out from positions 2 and 9, but nothing else conflicts as we don't have Mohan's specific placement yet.
  8. With all above, provisional arrangement:
    Position 1: Ram
    Position 2: Unknown (Not Mohan)
    Position 3: Suresh
    Position 4: Unknown
    Position 5: Rohan
    Position 6: Unknown
    Position 7: Mohit
    Position 8: Unknown
    Position 9: Rohit
  9. Now placing Shyam and Sohan.
    If Shyam is at position 8, Sohan at position 2 fits as "third to the right of Shyam". Thus:
    Position 1: Ram
    Position 2: Sohan
    Position 3: Suresh
    Position 4: Mohan
    Position 5: Rohan
    Position 6: Rakesh
    Position 7: Mohit
    Position 8: Shyam
    Position 9: Rohit
  10. Checking who is fifth to the right of Rohan at position 5:
    Position counting from position 5: 6 (Rakesh), 7 (Mohit), 8 (Shyam), 9 (Rohit), 1 (Ram), Position 6: Rakesh
    Thus, Rakesh is fifth to the right of Rohan.
Correct Answer: Rakesh
