Question:

DIRECTIONS: These questions are based on the information given below.


Six persons - A, B, C, D, E and F - are sitting around a circular table. They are studying one of the courses among Engineering, Medical, B.Sc. and Polytechnic. Two of them are studying medical and two Engineering, one B.Sc. and one polytechnic. Each of these persons are studying in a different college among P, Q, R, S, T and U. Further it is known that:

1. If E does not take admission in Engineering, then A takes admission in Medical.

2. If D takes admission in P, then B takes admission in R and C sits between A and E.

3. If E takes admission in U, then B takes admission in polytechnic and A takes admission in B.Sc.

4. IF E does not take admission in U, then C takes admission in P.

5. Unless F takes admission in Engineering then D takes admission in Engineering.

6. Two of them, who neither want to take admission in B.Sc. nor in polytechnic take admission in college P and Q.

7. F does not want to take admission in Engineering but sits neither opposite nor adjacent to B.

8. D does not take admission in college Q and B sits adjacent to A, who is two places to the left of E.

9. C takes admission in college S.

Who wants to take admission in college P?

Options:
A)

A

B)

B

C)

D

D)

E

E)

F 

Solution:

Ans: (c)

It is given that C takes admission in college S.

From condition (4),

Since ≈ q ⇒ ≈ p

E takes admission in college U.

From condition (3),

Since p ⇒ q and r

B takes admission in polytechnic and A takes admission in B.Sc.

From condition (7),

Since F does not want to take admission in engineering.

He takes admission in medical course.

From condition (5),

D takes admission engineering.

From conditions (6) and (8),

D takes admission in college P and F takes admission in college Q.

From condition (1),

Since ≈ q ⇒ ≈ p

E takes admission in engineering and C takes admission in medical course.

From condition (2),

Since p ⇒ q and r

B takes admission in college R and hence A takes admission in college T.

From conditions (8), and (2), we get the following arrangement.
