    E The data in both statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    From statement I alone, Train P is second to the left of train O. Two trains are to the left of train P. Train L is exactly between train N and train Q. So, we have, M         N/Q                 P         L                      O         Q/N So, either M or O is immediate left of N. From statement II alone, Train M is third to the left of train L, who is second to the left of train Q. Train N is immediate left of train P.   M         N         P         L          O         Q So, M is immediate left of N. Therefore, statement II alone is sufficient.
