SSC Constable GD Exam 21 Feb 2024 (1st shift)
Solution:
- T is fourth to the right of V:
- This means there are three people between V and T.
- So, the arrangement is: V _ _ _ T.
- U is immediately to the right of T:
- This means U is next to T on the right.
- So, the arrangement is: V _ _ _ T U.
- Person who is third to the left of S is at one of the ends:
- Let’s assume the person at the end is V (since V is already at one end).
- This means S is third to the right of V.
- So, the arrangement is: V _ _ S T U.
- R is the neighbour of Q and S:
- Since S is already placed, R must be next to S.
- So, the arrangement is: V _ R S T U.
- Q must be next to R.
- So, the arrangement is: V Q R S T U.
- P is the remaining person:
- P must be at the remaining position.
- So, the final arrangement is: P V Q R S T U.
Now, the person sitting immediately to the right of R is S.
