(5) Immediate left
8. Who is 2nd to the right of B?
(1) H
(2) G
(3) C
(4) A
(5) D
9. If all the friends change their respective position to immediate right place then who are still facing inside the centre?

10. Which of the following is true about the given information?
(1) C and F are facing each other
(2) E is third to the left of F
(3) C is third to the left of B

Answer Key :
Solutions (1-5):
1. (1) Using statement I, we get that X is the daughter of K and hence is a female. Therefore, X cannot be the brother of Y. So, statement I is sufficient to answer the question.
Using statement II, we get that Y is the daughter of K but nothing is being said about X. So, statement II is not sufficient to answer the question.
2. (4) Since, the order of X, Y and Z is not defined, we cannot find the distance between X and y.
3. (3) Using statement I, we can say that since Ramesh’s rank is 20th from bottom, and Rahul is 4 ranks above Ramesh, then his rank from bottom is 16th and hence from top it will be 25th.
Using statement II, Rahul’s rank from top will be 15th.
4. (1) Using statement I, we get that C reached before A and D but after E, But since E is not first to reach, therefore, B is the first to reach.
Using statement II, we get B reached before C, D and A. So, either B or E reached first. So, it is not sufficient to answer the question.
5. (5) Using both statements together, we get that the code for ‘SAD’ is ‘MO’.
Solutions (6-10):
1. (2)
2. (1)
3. (4)
4. (5)
5. (4)
