Each of the questions below consists of a question and two statements
numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the
statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and
Give answer a: if the data in Statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in Statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question.
Give answer b: if the data in Statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in Statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question.
Give answer c: if the data in either Statement I alone or in Statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.
Give answer d: if the data in neither Statement I nor II are sufficient to answer the question.
Give answer e: if the data in both the Statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question.
Among P, Q, R, S and T, sitting in a straight line, facing North, who sits exactly in the middle of the line ?
I. P sits third to left of S. T is an immediate neighbour of P as well as R.
II. T sits second to left of S. Q is not an immediate neighbour of either T or S.
Clearly each statement alone is insufficient as there is not enough data given in each of them, thus by combining both, we get :
P sits third to left of S. T is an immediate neighbour of P as well as R.
=> T sits to the immediate right of P and RÂ sits to the immediate left of S.
Also, Q is not an immediate neighbour of either T or S.
=> Q sits at the extreme left end.
Arrangement : Q P T R S
Thus, T sits in the middle.
$$\therefore$$ Both statements together are sufficient.
