Direction (6-10)
- I, J, S, M, R, and P are sitting in row 1 facing south.
- O, K, N, L, Q and U are sitting in row 2 facing north.
- J and L are 28 years and 32 years old respectively.
NOTE: The persons sit left of J and L are younger to them and the person sits right of J and L are elder to them.
- K is the youngest person and sits at the extreme end of the row.
- Only two people are younger to L in his row.
- Q sits second to the right of L who sits opposite to the one whose age is multiple of 11.
- I is younger than J and two persons are sitting between I and the one whose age is 33.
- K sits opposite to the one who is the second eldest person.
- Two people sit between S and R who sits opposite to the one who is 58 years old. If R sits right of J then he should not sit opposite to the person whose age is 58 years old because of above notes. So R should sit opposite to Q.
- M doesn’t sit opposite to K. So M should sit opposite to L and P sits opposite to K.
- The age of S is square of an odd number. So S’s age is 49 years.
- At least two people sit between N and U who doesn’t sit at the extreme end of the row.
- Now we don’t know the five persons age i.e., 27, 24, 29, 35, 50.
- R is younger than U but elder than I. From this statement R’s age is 27 years, I is 24 years and U is 29 years old.
- N’s age is not a multiple of 7. N age should be greater than 32years. So N’s age is 50 years .and O age is 35 years.
