10. Answer: A
Explanation :
Page 11 of 48

The one, who have 12 chocolates, sits fourth to the right of A. Only two persons sit between the one who have 12
chocolates and E.
Only one person sits between E and I, who have 34 chocolates.
Page 12 of 48

O sits third to the left of Q, who has 28 chocolates. A is an immediate neighbour of Q.
Page 13 of 48

In case 1b,A is an immediate neighbour of Q, this condition is not satisfied so rejected.

K sits a fourth to the left of M. Q is not an immediate neighbour of M. S sits two places away from G, who have 14
Chocolates. K is an immediate neighbour of neither S nor G. S is not an immediate neighbour of A.
Page 14 of 48

In case 1a and case 2b, K is an immediate neighbour of neither S nor G, this condition is not satisfied, and so both
cases are rejected.
Page 15 of 48

M have twice the chocolate of K. S have more chocolates than O. The one, who have 22 chocolates, sits third to the
right of the one who have 26 chocolates. The difference between the chocolates of S and O is 6.
Incase 2a (i), S have more chocolates than O, this condition is not satisfied so rejected.
So the final solution is case 2 a (ii).

corner. Two persons sits in the large centre side and each person in the smaller centre side.
. Five of them facing centre and remaining facing outside the table. Each person’s likes a different game such
viz, Badminton, Basketball, Cricket, Chess, Carom, Football, Kabaddi, Tennis, Rugby and Volleyball.
S and V sit diagonally and face opposite directions. T sits on the immediate left of S and neither immediate to
R.
W and S are sitting on the immediate left and 3rd to the left of Y respectively. One of the four persons sitting
on the corner is X, who likes Chess.
Page 22 of 48

P sits on one of the smaller sides and 3rd to the right of U. X is not an immediate neighbour of P, Q or U.
Page 23 of 48

Only two among the four sitting on the corners are not facing centre. X sits on the immediate right of R, who is not
facing centre. The one who likes Basketball sits on the immediate right of X. The one who likes Tennis sits 2 nd to the
left of R.
The one who likes Football sits on the immediate left of the one who like Tennis. S likes Carom and sits 3 rd to the left
of the one who likes Kabaddi. T likes Volleyball and sits 2nd to the left of one who likes Badminton.

23) Answer: A
24) Answer: D
25) Answer: A
Explanation:
Page 25 of 48

The person from Bihar sits third to the left of the one from Mumbai. The vacant seat of the first row is on the
immediate left of one who faces the person from Bihar. The one from Kolkata sits third to the right of the one who
faces the person from Mumbai.
The person from Delhi sits on the immediate left of the vacant seat of the 1st row. The vacant position of 1st row faces
the one from Allahabad. The person from Allahabad doesn’t face south.
Page 26 of 48

The one who is from Mumbai faces the person who is from Ranchi. T sits on a extreme end of the row and he is from
Gujarat. The one who faces T is an immediate neighbour of the person from Ranchi.
Page 27 of 48

Case (1) and Case (3) gets eliminated because we have no place to fix the position of T.
B sits on the immediate left of the one from Ranchi. Q faces C, who sits third to the right of A and D is one of the
immediate neighbour of A.
S is an immediate neighbour of P and Q.
Page 28 of 48

Only two persons sit between Q and the vacant seat.
Case (2a) gets eliminated because we have no place for Vacant.

O sits third to the right of her brother in-law. O’s son sits immediately next to O. O’s son sits third to the left of his
father who neither sits at any end.

A is grandson of M who sits at one end. B is grandson of L . Hence, M and L are in the first generation. The parents
of O have one son and one daughter. B is nephew of K. P is niece of K who is brother in-law of D. K has only one
brother who sits left of O. Hence K is the husband of O and A is the son of K. S has only one daughter i.e. P (she is
the only girl child in the third generation. O is sister in law of E then she is wife of O’s brother ie D (D is the husband
of E).

Solution:
Answers:
41. Answer: C
42. Answer: D
43. Answer: E
44. Answer: C
45.Answer: B
Common Explanation:
We have:
 B sits at one of the corner of the table three places away from I.
 I sits immediate north-east of O.
 O sits second left of M.
Page 44 of 48

That means, in case (1) B sits immediate right of longer side and M sits facing O, in case (2) B sits immediate
right of longer sits and M sits at smaller side of inner table, in case (3) B sits immediate left of longer side and
M sits facing O, in case (4) B sits immediate left of longer sits and M sits at smaller side of inner table.
 G sits immediate south-west of E and sits three places right of D.
 Both M and G sits in the different table.
That means, D sits immediate west of I.
Based on above given information we have:
Again, we have:
 N sits adjacent to E, who doesn’t sits facing J.
 Person immediate left of N sits facing K.
That means, in case (2) & case (4) K sits immediate right of D, case (1) & case (3) are not valid.
 If C and K interchange its position then C sits facing H.
That means, H must sits facing K.
 H sits in the same line of sight of F, who doesn’t sits adjacent to B.
That means, in case (2) F sits third to left of G, case (4) is not valid.
 L neither sits adjacent to O nor sits at adjacent to G.
That means, L sits immediate right of I.
Since, J and E doesn’t sits facing each other.
Page 45 of 48

Based on above given information we have final arrangement as follows:
Case (1) & case (3) are not valid as person immediate left of N sits facing K, case (4) are not valid as F and B
doesn’t sits together.
