Answers :
Directions (1-5) :
P joins in the month which has 31 days.
There are as many persons join before P as after M.
From the above condition, there are three possibilities.
R joins three months after Q.
R joins either immediately before or immediately after M.
Case-3 gets eliminated because we have no place for Q.
L joins just after N.
O joins the adjacent month of neither Q nor P.
Case-1 and Case-2a gets eliminated Since O joins an adjacent month of neither Q nor P.
So Final arrangement becomes,
