From statement I alone, T sits third to the right of R. Only two persons sit between R and X. S sits immediate left of V. We get: Case 1: XÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â SÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â VÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â RÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â U/WÂ Â Â W/UÂ Â Â TÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Case 2: XÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â U/WÂ Â Â W/UÂ Â Â RÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â SÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â VÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â TÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â As, from the information given in statement I, we cannot determine the person, who sits immediate right of X. So, data in statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question. From statement II alone, V sits third to the left of U. T sits immediate right of U. X sits second to the left of V. We get: XÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â _____VÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â ______Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â ______Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â UÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â T The positions of R, S and W, cannot be determined. So, we cannot determine the person, who sits immediate right of X. Combining statements I and II together, we get: XÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â SÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â VÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â RÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â WÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â UÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â T So, combining statements I and II together, we get S sits immediate right of X.
