Question

Answer the questions based on the information given below. Fourteen persons are sitting in two parallel rows containing seven persons in each row in such a way that there is an equal distance between adjacent persons. Initially, in row 1, P, Q, R, S, T, U and V are seated and all of them are facing towards the east and in row 2, A, B, C, D, E, F and G are seated and all of them are facing towards the west. Therefore, in the given seating arrangement each person sitting in row 1, is facing the persons sitting in row 2 and vice versa. They play a game of throwing a dice. They interchange their initial position according to the game rules which are as follows: I. On throwing the dice, if odd number comes, then the person sitting 2 nd to the left of thrower exchanges his seat with the person sitting opposite to the one, who sits immediate right of thrower. II. On throwing the dice, if even number comes, then the person sitting immediate right of the thrower exchanges his seat with one, who sits opposite to the thrower. Before Movement: 1. T sits fourth to the left of P. Either T or P sits at an extreme end of the row. 2. The one who faces P sits second to the left of F. 3. S sits exactly in the middle of the row. C and D are immediate neighbors of each other. 4. Number of persons sitting to the left of F is twice the number of persons sitting to the right of F. 5. The one, who faces P sits to the immediate left of G and that person is neither C nor D. 6. Number of persons sit between P and R is same as the number of persons sit between T and S. 7. T neither faces C nor D. No one sits between S and V. 8. At least two persons sit between G and E. R does not face B. 9. At most one person sit between S and Q. 10. U faces neither E nor C. 11. A throws the dice and gets 4 after that F throws the dice and gets 3 and finally, V throws the dice and gets 1. How many persons sit between A and F before the movement?

Explanation: Start with T and P as one of them is sitting at the extreme end and T sits 4 th to the left of P. The one who faces P sits second to the left of F. S sits exactly in the middle of the row. So, we have 2 possible cases i.e., either T or P sits at the extreme end. Case I: When T sits at the extreme end: Case II: When P sits at the extreme end: Number of persons sitting to the left of F is twice the number of persons sitting to the right of F. The one who faces P sits to the immediate left of G and that person is neither C nor D. Number of persons sit between P and R is same as the number of persons sit between T and S. So, case II is rejected as number of persons sitting to the left is twice than the number of persons sitting to the right of F. Now, 2 persons are sitting between T and S so, 2 persons are sitting P and R which means R must be sitting to the left of P. T neither faces C nor D. No one sit between S and V. At least two persons sit between G and E. R does not face B. At most one person sit between S and Q. U neither faces E nor C. Now, E either sits to the left or right of G. Also, Q must be sitting 2 nd to the right of S as at most one person sits between them. Now, we have left with one place in row 1 i.e., immediate right of Q so, U must be sitting immediate right of Q. Now, If U sits immediate right of Q which means E must be sitting to the right of G as U neither face E nor C. The final arrangement before the movement is as follows: Now, A throws the dice and gets 4 which means R exchange his seat with E. F throws the dice and gets 3 which means B exchanges his seat with E. Finally, V throws the dice and gets 1 which means T exchanges his seat with G. The final figure after the movement is as follows: A and F are immediate neighbors of each other.
