    1 / -0.25

    Directions For Questions

    Directions: Study the following information carefully and answer the given questions.

    Nine friends - P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, and X are sitting around a circular table equidistant from each other (but not necessarily in the same order). Some of them are facing inside while some are facing outside. (Note: Facing the same direction means, if one is facing inside then the other also faces inside and vice-versa. Facing the opposite directions means, if one is facing inside then the other faces outside and vice-versa). Not more than two adjacent people are facing in the same direction. 

    Only two people sit between T and P and both T and P are facing the opposite direction to each other. At least two people are sitting between P and V from either clockwise or anticlockwise direction. R is third to the right of V who is facing the same direction as that of T. Neither P nor T is an immediate neighbour of either R. Q is seated exactly between T and R. X is fourth to the right of Q and facing outside. R is facing the opposite direction to his immediate neighbours. W is third to the left of U.

    How many people are facing outside?

    Solutions

    (1) Only two people sit between T and P and both T and P are facing the opposite direction to each other.

    (2) At least two people are sitting between P and V from either clockwise or anticlockwise direction.

    (3) R is third to the right of V who is facing the same direction as that of T.

    (4) Neither P nor T is an immediate neighbour of either R (Here Case I (a) and Case II (b) eliminate).

    (5)Q is seated exactly between T and R.

    (6) X is fourth to the right of Q and facing outside.

    (7) Not more than two people are facing in the same direction, therefore Case I (b) eliminates here.

    (8) W is third to the left of U.

    (9) R is facing the opposite direction to his immediate neighbours. 

    As we can see from the above final arrangement that there are four people facing outside.

    Hence, four is the correct answer.

    Nine boxes A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, and I are kept above one another in a corner of an office. These nine boxes contain documents of nine different employees Anu, Kapil, Richa, Sohail, Geeta, Mukesh, Sonam, Ravi, and Pawan, but not necessarily in the same order.

    Box C is kept four boxes above the box that contains Sohail’s documents. At least three boxes are kept above box C. Three boxes are kept between box H and box C. Box H is not kept above box C. Only one box is kept between box F and box H. Four boxes are kept between Geeta’s box and box F. Only one box is kept between the boxes that contain Ravi's and Geeta's documents. At least six boxes are kept below the box that contains Ravi's documents. The box that contains Anu's documents is kept above box C and below box B. Box D is kept five boxes below the box that contains Mukesh's documents. Four boxes are kept between box E and box A. Only one box is kept between the box that contains Sonam's files and box A. Five boxes are kept between box I and the box that contains Richa's documents. Box F does not contain Pawan’s documents.

    Which box contains Kapil’s documents?

    Solutions

    1) Box C is kept four boxes above the box that contains Sohail’s documents.

    2) At least three boxes are kept above box C.

    (As at least three boxes are kept above box C, implies, there are two possibilities here:

    Case I: The box that contains Sohail’s files is kept at the second place from the bottom and accordingly, box C is kept at the fourth place from the top.

    Case II: The box that contains Sohail’s file is kept at the bottom and accordingly, box C is kept at the fifth position from the top.)

    3) Three boxes are kept between box H and box C.

    4) Box H is not kept above box C.

    (Implies, in both the cases, box H contains Sohail’s files.)

    5) Only one box is kept between box F and box H.

    (In both cases, box F would be above box H.

    Case I: Box F would be in the fourth position from the bottom.

    Case II: Box F would be in the third position from the bottom.)

    6) Four boxes are kept between Geeta’s box and box F.

    Case I: Geeta’s box is at the top.

    Case II: Geeta's box is in the second position from the top.)

    7) Only one box is kept between the boxes that contains Ravi’s and Geeta’s documents.

    (As Geeta's box is either at the top or in the second position from the top, implies, Ravi's box must be below Geeta's box.

    Case I: Ravi’s box must be in the third position from the top.

    Case II: Ravi’s box must be in the fourth position from the top.)

    8) At least six boxes are kept below the box that contains Ravi’s documents.

    (Clearly, it is not possible in the second case as there are only five boxes below the box that contains Ravi’s documents. Hence, case II is not true and we will proceed with case I only.)

    9) The box that contains Anu’s documents is kept above box C and below box B.

    (Implies, the box that contains Anu’s documents is kept in the second position from the top as it is the only possibility. It further implies that box B contains Geeta’s document as it is the only box above Anu’s box.)

    10) Box D is kept five boxes below the box that contains Mukesh’s documents.

    (It is only possible if box C contains Mukesh’s documents and box D is kept at the bottom.)

    11) Four boxes are kept between box E and box A.

    (It is only possible if either box E or A contains Anu’s file and the other box is kept five boxes below it.)

    12) Only one box is kept between the box that contains Sonam’s files and box A.

    (If we assume that box A contains Anu's documents then there is no way we can place Sonam's box so that it satisfies the given condition. Hence, box E contains Anu's documents and box A is kept five boxes below it. Now, the box that contains Sonam’s files could either be above box A or below box A.)

    13) Five boxes are kept between box I and the box that contains Richa’s documents.

    (It is only possible if Richa's box is kept at the bottom and box I is kept at the third position from the top. Implies, box D contains Richa's files and box I contains Anu's file. It further implies that we cannot place Sonam's box below box A, hence, Sonam's box is kept two boxes above box A. Also, ow that only one box is left to be placed in the table i.e. box G, implies, box G is kept between box C and F as it is the only possibility.)

    14) Box F does not contain Pawan’s documents.

    (Implies, box A contains Pawan’s documents and box F contains Kapil’s documents.)

    Clearly, box F contains Kapil’s documents.

    Solutions

    1) Box C is kept four boxes above the box that contains Sohail’s documents.

    2) At least three boxes are kept above box C.

    Case II: Geeta's box is in the second position from the top.)

    7) Only one box is kept between the boxes that contains Ravi’s and Geeta’s documents.

    (As Geeta's box is either at the top or in the second position from the top, implies, Ravi's box must be below Geeta's box.

    Case I: Ravi’s box must be in the third position from the top.

    Case II: Ravi’s box must be in the fourth position from the top.)

    8) At least six boxes are kept below the box that contains Ravi’s documents.

    (Clearly, it is not possible in the second case as there are only five boxes below the box that contains Ravi’s documents. Hence, case II is not true and we will proceed with case I only.)

    9) The box that contains Anu’s documents is kept above box C and below box B.

    (Implies, the box that contains Anu’s documents is kept in the second position from the top as it is the only possibility. It further implies that box B contains Geeta’s document as it is the only box above Anu’s box.)

    10) Box D is kept five boxes below the box that contains Mukesh’s documents.

    (It is only possible if box C contains Mukesh’s documents and box D is kept at the bottom.)

    13) Five boxes are kept between box I and the box that contains Richa’s documents.

    (It is only possible if Richa's box is kept at the bottom and box I is kept at the third position from the top. Implies, box D contains Richa's files and box I contains Anu's file. It further implies that we cannot place Sonam's box below box A, hence, Sonam's box is kept two boxes above box A. Also, ow that only one box is left to be placed in the table i.e. box G, implies, box G is kept between box C and F as it is the only possibility.)
