From this statement, we will have two cases: Scooby will sit either at place no. 2 or 8. Simpson is an immediate neighbour of Bunny. Bunny is not an immediate neighbour of Daffy or Johnny and he does not likes Casio. The one who likes Timex sits second to the right of Simpson. Bunny cannot sit at place no. 6, 5, 4 and 8. So, only place left for him is place no. 1. As Simpson is an immediate neighbour of Bunny. So, Simpson will sit either at place no. 8 or 2. The one who likes Timex sits either at place no. 4 or 2. Only three people sit between the one who likes Timex and the one who likes Citizen. So, the one who likes Citizen sits either at place no. 6 or 8.
