Nine friends J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q and R are watching a cricket match in a stadium. Seated in a row, L is at the immediate right of M and at third place at the right of N. K is at one end of row. Q is seated adjacent to both O and P. O is at the third place at the left of K. J is right next to left of O.

Who is sitting between N and M?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

K cannot be at the left end because O must be three places to its left. So K is at position 9.

Then O is at 6 and J at 5. Since Q is adjacent to both O and P, Q is at 7 and P at 8.

The remaining positions 1, 2, 3, 4 are for N, R, M, L. Because L is third right of N and immediately right of M, we get:

N - R - M - L.

Therefore R sits between N and M.
