Solutions
Q.1) Answer- C
As per the given information, we can get the below combinations.
Hamilton – English
Juniper – Germany – English
Matthew – Canada – Latin
Lancaster – Ireland – Greek
Brazil – Latin
Spencer – Indonesia – Latin
Davenport – Australia
Franklin – Spain
Since it is given that Franklin is fluent in the same language as Davenport, and each
language is spoken by at least two people, we can conclude that they are both
fluent in Greek, since Lancaster is the only one specified to be fluent in Greek. This
leaves only one other person, Carmen, who will have to be from Brazil, and only
one other nation that is not assigned, which means Hamilton is from France. Now
that we have all the combinations, the arrangement can be easily mapped out.
Given that Hamilton is seated third on the left of Juniper and on the immediate left
of Matthew. Carmen is seated opposite to Juniper, which means they are
separated by three people, so Carmen is seated on the immediate left of Hamilton.
Given that Davenport is seated third on the left of Lancaster, this would be on the
immediate left of Juniper and Davenport is also fourth on the right of Spencer,
which means Spencer is on the immediate left of Carmen. We are left with one
vacant position and one person, so Franklin is on the immediate right of Juniper.
The final arrangement is as follows

Q.3) Answer- B
As per the given information, we can get the below combinations.
Hamilton – English
Juniper – Germany – English
Matthew – Canada – Latin
Lancaster – Ireland – Greek
Brazil – Latin
Spencer – Indonesia – Latin
Davenport – Australia
Franklin – Spain
Since it is given that Franklin is fluent in the same language as Davenport, and each
language is spoken by at least two people, we can conclude that they are both
fluent in Greek, since Lancaster is the only one specified to be fluent in Greek. This
leaves only one other person, Carmen, who will have to be from Brazil, and only
one other nation that is not assigned, which means Hamilton is from France.

As per the given information, the Marble state is present between the Jade and
Cedar statues. So, the Jade, Marble and Cedar statues are in a straight line. The
Ivory and Mahogany statues are adjacent to each other. Two statues are located
between the Granite statue and Snowy, and Grumpy is third on the right of the
Granite statue, so Snowy must be third on the left of the Granite statue.
Bashful is located second on the right of the Marble statue but is not immediately
next to Snowy. So, the below partial orders of statues can be obtained.
i. Ivory, Mahogany
ii. Snowy, -, -, Granite, -, -, Grumpy
iii. Jade/Cedar, Marble, Cedar/Jade, Bashful
Since it is also specified that neither Grumpy nor Snowy is made of either Ivory or
Mahogany, the two statues on either the left or right of the Granite one should be
the Ivory and Mahogany ones.

As per the given information,
Outer desk – facing towards the centre – Frank, Lily, Orion, Derek
Inner desk – facing away from the centre – Stacy, Mandy, Rick, Jack
Derek is seated second on the right of Orion, and both are along the outer circle.
The Boston player is on Derek’s left. Since it is given that Lily is from Detroit and
seated along the outer circle, we can say that Lily is seated on Derek’s right, and
the player on Derek’s left is Frank. Given that Stacy is from Nashville and is seated
facing the player seated immediately next to the player from Detroit, and also that
Lily is not facing Stacy. So, Stacy must be facing either Derek or Orion. Given that
the players from Orlando and Nashville are separated by at least one player, they
have to be facing Derek and Orion.

Prasuna – Green – towards centre
Raksha – towards centre
Malvika – Blue – away from centre
Visakha – away from centre

The people on either side of Prasuna are facing away from the centre and have
Orange or Pink coloured nails. Since we know that the one on the left has Orange
nails, the one on the right must have Pink nails. Given that the one with Purple
coloured is not seated immediately next to Malvika and is facing away from the

Q.29) Answer- A
As per the given information, we have the below pairs
Mukesh – Sprite – Oracle
Shaan – HCL
Jyoti – Mountain Dew – HCL
Vamsi – Pepsi
Devaki – Red Bull
Mukesh is on Shaan’s left. Since both Jyoti and Shaan are working at HCL and we
know that the ones from HCL are seated together, Jyoti must be seated on Shaan’s
right. Devaki is seated opposite Jyoti and has to be second on the left of Mukesh.
Vamsi is seated between the person drinking Coca Cola and Devaki. So, clearly
Vamsi is on Devaki’s left since we know that Mukesh is drinking Sprite. The people
working at Infosys are seated directly opposite each other, which is only possible if
one of them is on the left of Mukesh and the other is on the right of Jyoti. With the
information thus far, the partial arrangement is as follows.

The person drinking Red Bull is seated on the immediate left of the person drinking
Limca, so the person on Devaki’s left must be drinking Limca. Since no two people
from the same company can be seated together except for HCL, the person from
Oracle apart from Mukesh has to be Vamsi, and the remaining two people on

Q.30) Answer- A
As per the given information, we have the below pairs
Mukesh – Sprite – Oracle
Shaan – HCL
Jyoti – Mountain Dew – HCL
Vamsi – Pepsi
Devaki – Red Bull
Mukesh is on Shaan’s left. Since both Jyoti and Shaan are working at HCL and we
know that the ones from HCL are seated together, Jyoti must be seated on Shaan’s
right. Devaki is seated opposite Jyoti and has to be second on the left of Mukesh.
Vamsi is seated between the person drinking Coca Cola and Devaki. So, clearly
Vamsi is on Devaki’s left since we know that Mukesh is drinking Sprite. The people
working at Infosys are seated directly opposite each other, which is only possible if
one of them is on the left of Mukesh and the other is on the right of Jyoti. With the

Q.34) Answer- A
As per the given information, we have the below combinations
Varna – Korean
Rashi – away from the centre
Considering Anshul is seated opposite to the person who likes Brazilian food. Given
that Moksh is seated next to the one who likes Brazilian food. Moksh is seated
third on the right of the person who likes Danish food, which cannot be Anshul. So,
if Anshul is facing away from the centre, then Moksh has to be third on the left of
Anshul, and third on the right of Anshul if Anshul were facing towards the centre.
Case 1: If Anshul is facing away from the centre, Moksh has to be third on the left
of Anshul and the one who likes Brazilian food is fourth on the left of Anshul. Since
Moksh is seated third on the right of the one who likes Danish food, that person
has to be second on the right of Anshul and facing away from the centre. Anshul is
seated second on the left of Harini, who is not seated immediately next to Moksh,
so Harini must be the one who likes Danish food, who is seated second on Anshul’s
right.

Since only a maximum of two adjacent people can be seated facing the same
direction, the person on Anshul’s right should be facing towards the centre. The
person who likes Danish food is seated between Nirmal and the person who likes
German food. If we consider Nirmal to be on Harini’s left and the one who likes
German food on Harini’s right, then Moksh must be facing the centre, and must
like Persian food, which is not possible since it is given that Moksh does not like
Persian food. So, the one on Harini’s left must like German food, and Nirmal must
be on her right. Varna is seated third on the right of Rashi and likes Korean food.
So, Rashi has to be the one who likes Brazilian food, with Varna being third on her
right. Both Nirmal and Moksh should be facing towards the centre. Seema is
seated on the immediate left of the person who likes Spanish food, which can only
be Moksh in the arrangement, but it is given that it should be either Anshul or
Rashi. So, this case is invalid.

Case 2: If Anshul is facing towards the centre, Moksh has to be third on the left of

Moksh is seated third on the right of the one who likes Danish food, that person

Persian food, Nirmal must like Persian food, since the one who likes German food
is second on their right. So, Nirmal must be facing away from the centre, and so is
Moksh. This leaves Farah to like the Brazilian food, and she must be facing towards

be on her right. Varna is seated third on the right of Rashi and likes Korean food.
Since Rashi is seated away from the centre, she has to be the one who likes
German food, and Varna is seated third on her right. Anshul must like Spanish
food, since Rashi does not. Seema is seated on the immediate left of the person
who likes Spanish food, so Seema is on Anshul’s left. Since Seems does not like
Persian food, Nirmal must like Persian food, since the one who likes German food
is second on their right. So, Nirmal must be facing away from the centre, and so is
Moksh. This leaves Farah to like the Brazilian food, and she must be facing towards
the centre. Since Moksh and Seema are facing opposite directions, Seema is facing
the centre, so Varna must be facing away from the centre. Given that the person
who likes Mexican food is facing the direction opposite to the one that Varna is
facing, Seema must like Mexican, which leaves Moksh to like Albanian food.
The final arrangement is as follows

The correct combination is Nirmal-Facing away from the centre-Persian.

Q.39) Answer- C
As per the given information, we have the below details
Doctors – Jai, Kush, Loki, Mansi, Neeti, Anita, Pari, Charu
Doctor tokens – 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80
Patients – Roshan, Sashi, Tarak, Umesh, Varun, Wasim, Sakshi, Yuvi
Patient tokens – 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
Kush – 40
80 – inner circle
Mansi – inner circle
Charu – 10
Sakshi – 6
Anita – 60
Roshan – outer circle
There is only one person whose token number is higher than that of Neeti, so
Neeti’s token number must be 70. Loki's token number has only one other
multiple among the given token numbers, which is not the highest among the
tokens, which means Loki’s token must be 30, since it has only one other multiple
among the tokens, 60, which is not the highest among them. Since Roshan is a
patient with a token number being a multiple of 5, it can only be 5. Varun’s token
number must be 8, since the only other cube is 1, which is assigned to Loki’s
patient. Wasim’s token number is half of Sakshi’s, so it has to be 3. Sashi’s token
number can be one of 2, 4, 6 or 8. Since 6 and 8 are already assigned to Sakshi and
Varun, and Charu, whose token is five times of 2, is not the doctor for Sashi, so
Sashi’s token must be 4. So, Sashi’s doctor’s token must be 20. Exactly three
people are seated between Tarak's doctor, Anita, and Kush. Tarak is on the
immediate right of Varun’s doctor, who is Charu. Exactly one person is seated
between Wasim's doctor and Charu. The token number of Umesh is lower than
that of Sashi with a difference of 2, so it must be 2. Tarak and Yuvi must have
either token 1 or 7, since all others are assigned to other patients. Since Loki’s
patient has a token of 1, and Anita’s patient is Tarak, Tarak’s token must be 7 and
Yuvi’s token must be 1. Below is the partial arrangement based on the information
so far.

Q.46) Answer- B
As per the given information, we have the following combinations
Ramya – Chestnut – towards the centre
Shyam – Ombre – away from the centre
Biju – Chestnut – towards the centre
There is an Auburn haired person seated next to both Yasi and Biju, so that person
must be seated between them. Kunal and Leena are seated together and have the
same hair colour, so no one else can have that hair colour, which means it must be
either Caramel or Burgundy. The Auburn haired person is seated immediately next
to both Yasi and Biju, but neither of them is seated next to either Kunal or Leena.
Neither Yasi nor Biju has Auburn hair since they are seated adjacent to an Auburn
haired person. Bunty is seated second on the left of Ramya. The Chestnut haired
persons are facing the centre, with Bunty, Nazia and Yasi facing the same direction
as Biju. So, they are all facing the centre. Since Bunty does not have Chestnut,
Caramel or Ombre coloured hair, he must be having Auburn or Burgundy hair.
Case 1: If Kunal is facing towards the centre, then Leena must be on his left and
facing away from the centre, since she cannot be next to Biju. The Auburn haired
person has to be on Biju’s left and Yasi is second on Biju’s left. Since Bunty is
seated second on Ramya’s left, with Ramya facing the centre, this is only possible
if Ramya is on Yasi’s left. The Caramel haired person is seated third on the left of
Disha, but it is not Kunal or Ramya and cannot be Leena either. This means Kunal
and Leena must have Burgundy hair. This leaves Bunty to have Auburn hair. Nazia
is seated third on the right of Shyam, who has Ombre coloured hair and is seated
facing away from the centre. This is not possible with the current scenario, so this
case is invalid.

Case 2: If Kunal is facing away from the centre, then he must be second on Biju’s
left and Leena must be on Kunal’s right, facing the centre, since she cannot be next
to Biju. The Auburn haired person has to be on Biju’s right and Yasi is second on
Biju’s right. Ramya has Chestnut hair and is seated facing the centre, and Bunty is
seated second on her left. Ramya can either be on Yasi’s right or Leena’s left. But if
she is on Yasi’s right, Disha’s position cannot be possible based on the given
conditions. So, Ramya has to be on Leena’s left. So, Bunty is on Yasi’s right. The
Caramel haired person is seated third on the left of Disha, but it is not Kunal or
Ramya. So, Disha has to be on Biju’s left facing away from the centre, which means
Yasi is the Caramel haired person. We can now say that Kunal and Leena have
Burgundy hair. Since we have two people with Burgundy hair, Bunty must have
Auburn hair. This leaves Shyam to be on Ramya’s left and the Auburn haired
person on Biju’s right is Nazia. Finally, Disha may have either Caramel or Ombre
coloured hair. The final arrangement is as follows

Leena is seated second on the right of Disha.
