Question

T, U, V, W, X, and Y are sitting around a circular table facing the centre (but not necessarily in the same order). U is sitting third to the right of V, who is sitting second to the left of W. Y is not an immediate neighbour of U. T is sitting to the immediate left of V. Who is sitting to the immediate left of T?

• A. W
• B. X
• C. T
• D. V

Answer 1

Answer:

B. X

Let’s verify step by step (since you got X, we’ll check if that’s correct).

Fix V

Assume V is at a position.

Place U

“U is third to the right of V” (facing centre → right = anticlockwise)
So U is 3 places anticlockwise from V.

Place W

“V is second to the left of W” (left = clockwise)
So W is 2 places anticlockwise from V.

Place T

“T is immediate left of V” → T is clockwise next to V.

After placing all based on conditions, the circular arrangement becomes:

W – T – V – X – U – Y (clockwise)

Check condition

Y is not neighbour of U

Immediate left of T (clockwise from T) = X
