      Question

      The question given below consist of two statements

      numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read all the statements and answer the question. Eight persons F, G, H, I, J, K, L and M sit around a square shaped table such that one person sits at each corner of the table and one person sits at the middle of each side of the table. Each of them faces towards the centre. Who sits second to the left of K? Statement I: G sits second to the right of I, who sits adjacent L. H, who does not sit along a corner, sits immediate left of L. M sits second to the right of F. K doesn't sit adjacent to M. Statement II: K sits at a corner of the table. Only two persons sit between K and J. F sits immediate left of J. G sits adjacent to F and second to the right of I. M sits second to the left of L.
      A Data given in both statement I and statement II together are not sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Data given in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question, while data given in statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Data given in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question, while data given in statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Data given in both statement I and statement II together are necessary to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of the above Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      From statement I alone, G sits second to the right of I, who sits adjacent L. H, who does not sit along a corner, sits immediate left of L. M sits second to the right of F. K doesn't sit adjacent to M. Case 1: Case 2: So, from statement I alone, we get either L or M sits second to the left of K. From statement II alone, K sits at a corner of the table. Only two persons sit between K and J. F sits immediate left of J. G sits adjacent to F and second to the right of I. M sits second to the left of L. We get: So, from statement II alone, we get L sits second to the left of K. Therefore, data given in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question, while data given in statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.
