Who among the following sits diagonally opposite to
X? Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given below it. Ten people F, G, H, I,J, U, V, W, X and Y are sitting in two rows. Five people in each row facing each other. F, G, H, I and J are facing north. U, V, W, X and Y are facing south but not necessarily in the same order. One who is sitting opposite to H sits immediate left of W. H sits third to the right of F. Â Only one person sitting between W and Y. Y is sitting one of the right positions of W. One who is sitting opposite to V sits third to the left of G. But G is not sitting at the extreme ends. Number of persons sitting to the left of U and number of persons sitting to the Left of J is same. Only two people are sitting between Y and X.Solution
H sits third to the right of F. One who is sitting opposite to H sits immediate left of W
Only one person sitting between W and Y. Y is sitting one of the right positions of W. Only two people are sitting between Y and X.
One who is sitting opposite to V sits third to the left of G.
