Why this answer is correct
Persons: M, N, O, P, Q, R, S and T.
-
T sits third to the right of N.
-
P sits opposite to R and both sit on the corners.
-
S sits second to the right of R.
-
Q is adjacent to neither T nor N.
-
M sits second to the left of O, who does not sit opposite to T. So, case 2 would be invalid.
Hence, Q sits second to the left of N.
