Question 1
1 / -0

Directions: Read the following information and answer the question that follows.

Five persons are standing in a line facing north. One of the persons standing at the extreme ends is a professor and the other is a businessman. An advocate is standing to the right of a student. An author is to the immediate left of the businessman. The student is standing between the professor and the advocate.

Counting from left, what is the position of the advocate?

A
3^rd

B
4^th

C
5^th

D
2^nd

E
3^rd or 5^th

Solution

One of the persons standing at the extreme ends is a professor and the other is a businessman. An author is to the immediate left of the businessman.

The student is standing between the professor and the advocate. An advocate is standing to the right of a student.

So, if we count from left, the position of the advocate is 3^rd. In this case, the advocate is 3^rd from right also.
Therefore, the correct answer is (1).
Question 2
1 / -0

Directions: Read the following information and answer the question given below.

Five friends A, B, C, D and E are standing in a row facing south, but not necessarily in the same order. Only B is between A and E, C is immediately right to E and D is immediately left to A.

B
D is third to the left of E.

C
B is to the right of E.

D
A is second to the left of C.

None of these

Solution

Only B is between A and E, C is immediately right to E.

D is immediately left to A. So possibility 2 eliminates.

(1) B is to the right of A.
(2) D is third to the left to E.
(3) B is to the left of E.
(4) A is third to the left of C.
So, only 2 is true.
Question 3
1 / -0

Directions: Read the following information and answer the question that follows.

Seven people – A, B, C, D, E, F and G are standing in a single file line, facing a booth. E is somewhere ahead of F. There is exactly one person standing between C and G. D is immediately behind A. F is behind both B and D. If D and C are fourth and fifth in line, respectively, then which of the following must be true?

A
A is first.

B

There is exactly one person between C and G, i.e. ___, __, A, D, C, __, G.
F is behind B, D and E. So, F is between C and G while the first two positions are taken by B and E.
Thus, the sequence becomes:
B/E, E/B, A, D, C, F, G.
Clearly, F is sixth in the line.
