Answers :

Directions (1-5) :

We have:

  • P sits third from the left end.
  • Two persons sit between P and R, who doesn’t sit adjacent to S.

That means, in case (1) R sits third to the right of P, in case (2) R sits fourth to the right of P.

  • T sits fourth to the left of S, who sits at any position to the right of vacant seat.

That means, in case (1) T sits immediate right of P, in case (2) T sits second to the left of P.

  • One person sits between S and Q, who sits at any position to the left of P.

That means, in case (2) Q sits immediate right of T, case (1) is not valid.

Based on above given information we have:

Case (1) is not valid as one person sits between S and Q, who sits at any position to the left of P.

Again, we have:

  • One person sits between U and V, who doesn’t sit at the end.

That means, V sits immediate right of S.
