      Question

      A question is given, followed by two statements

      numbered (I) and (II). You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements is sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and select the appropriate answer. Six persons L, M, N, O, P and Q sit in a linear row and face towards the north direction but not necessarily in the same order. Who sits immediate left of N? Statement I: L sits second to the right of P. One person sits between L and M. Q sits at one of the extreme ends. Q does not sit adjacent to M. N sits to the left of O. Statement II: Q sits immediate left of P. Two persons sit between P and O. M sits adjacent to O. M sits at one of the extreme ends. L sits to the right of N.
      A Data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Data in either statement I alone or statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Data in both statements I and II together is necessary to answer the question Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Data in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E Data in both statements I and II together is not necessary to answer the question Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      From statement I, L sits second to the right of P. One person sits between L and M. Q sits at one of the extreme ends. Q does not sit adjacent to M. N sits to the left of O.

      The following arrangement can be drawn from the given statements,

      Q P N L O M

      P sits immediate left of N.

      From statement II, Q sits immediate left of P. Two persons sit between P and O. M sits adjacent to O. M sits at one of the extreme ends. L sits to the right of N.

      Case 1:

      Q P N L O M

      Case 2:

      M O N Q P L

      Either P or O sits immediate left of N.

      Data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.
