How to start the puzzle since G can be sitting in either of the rows.

Question:

DIRECTIONS: These questions are based on the following information.


Eight persons – A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H – from eight different fields viz. Agriculture, Banking, Business, Army, Medicine, Navy, Software and Teaching sit in two different rows, four persons in each facing each other but not necessarily in the same order. The following information is given. 


(a) B and the person from Teaching are adjacent to each other and one among them sits at one of the ends.

(b) The person from Banking and G are opposite each other. H is not from Banking.

(c) Either C or the person from Navy sits at one of the ends and both sit in the different rows.

(d) Only one person sits to the left of G.

(e) H who is not from Medicine is the neighbour of the persons from Army and Software.

(f) The person from Business who is not D is adjacent to A and opposite to E.

(g) C sits to the right of the person from Army and is facing North direction

H is from which field?

Options:
A) Business
B) Banking
C) Agriculture
D) Teaching
E) Navy
Solution:
Ans: (c) From (b) and (d), G and the person from Banking sit opposite each other and only one person sits to the left of G.

From (e) and (g). H is the neighbour of the persons from Army and Software and the person from Army cannot be at the right end. Hence the possible arrangements are.


From (c), either C or the person from Navy sits at one of the ends but not both and are in different rows.

Hence the arrangement will be,


From (a), B and the person from Teaching are adjacent to each other. Hence the possible arrangements are,


But from (f), the person from Business who is not D is adjacent to A and opposite E and H is not from Medicine field.

∴ The final arrangement is,


H is from the field of Agriculture.

Its clearly given in the text that The person from Banking and G are opposite.........so, A is from banking in first row so its obvious that G will be in second row facing A.
