A parking lot can accommodate only six cars. The six cars are parked in two rows in such a way that the front of the three cars parked in one row is facing the other three cars in the other row.
i. Alto is not parked in the beginning of any row
ii. Esteem is second to the right of i10
iii. Punto, who is the neighbor of Alto is parked diagonally opposite to i10
iv. Swift is parked in front of Alto
v. SX4 is parked to the immediate right of Alto

Question 36

If SX4 and Esteem exchange their positions mutually then car (s) adjacent to Esteem is (are)?

Solution

It is given that Esteem is second to the right of i10. Punto, who is the neighbor of Alto is parked diagonally opposite to i10. We can draw the diagram as shown in the figure below. 

Swift is parked in front of Alto and SX4 is parked to the immediate right of Alto. 

We have arranged all six cars according to the conditions given in the question. 

Now we are asked to interchange SX4 and Esteem's positions mutually and then figure out the car(s) adjacent to Esteem. These cars should be same as SX4 in the original arrangement. From the diagram, we can see that only Alto will be adjacent to Esteem in new position. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
