Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven : Eight persons – D, E, G, H, K, L, S and T are sitting in a straight line facing north.
Explanation :
1) E sits second from the left end of the row.
2) No one is sitting between H and E.
As position of E with respect to E is not known yet, therefore there are two possible positions for H.
- Case - (1) :
- Case - (2) :
3) G sits fourth to the right of H.
4) K is sitting immediate left of G.
- Case - (1) :
- Case - (2) :
5) Only two persons sit between K and D.
6) L is sitting third to the right of S.
As there is possible position for D is case - (2), therefore case - (2) is eliminated.
After positioning D, L and S only one position is left which will be occupied by the only person left i.e T.
- Case - (1) :
Thus, according to the final arrangement four people i.e K, G, L and D are sitting between S and T.
Hence, "More than three" is the correct answer.
