puzzle (Question:924830.1)

this puzzlle i did not understand ,can u explain plz step by step

Question:

DIRECTIONS: Study the following Information carefully and answer the questions given below.


Eleven people named A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J and K are sitting in two rows. Each row has six seats. One seat is vacant in one of the rows. The persons in row one are facing South and the persons in row two are facing North. Each person in row one faces a person from the other row. Each of them has different profession viz. Lawyer, CA, Actor, Doctor, Designer, Author, Teacher, Business-man, Engineer, Professor and Singer. (But not necessarily in the same order)

A sits third to the left of E and faces the one who is a CA named K. G sits next to the one who is an Author. J sits second to the right of the teacher and faces D. I sits fourth to the right of B and faces G. C is facing North and sits exactly to the left of G . I does not  work as a Professor. D sits second to the right of the Actor named B. Engineer & lawyer are not the neighbours. The person who is an Engineer sits second to the left of the one who is a Designer.

F is a doctor and sits at the extreme end of any row. H sits exactly between the one who is a Lawyer and the one who is a Business-man. Lawyer faces neither the designer nor the actor. J sits between H and the one who is a singer. G works as a teacher.

Which among the following combinations is true according to the given information?
Options:
A) B-Singer
B) I-Designer
C) C-Actor
D) E-Author
E) None of these
Solution:
Ans: (b)

We will start arranging the things from statements which are related to “G”.

C is facing North and sits exactly to the left of G who is a teacher.

I sits fourth to the right of B and faces G.

J sits second to the right of the teacher(G) and faces D. J sits between H and the one who is a singer So H must be sitting to the right of J as we are given “H sits exactly between the one who is a Lawyer and the one who is a Business-man.” Lawyer faces neither the designer nor the actor.

So Business-man must be sitting at the extreme right end facing the one who is an actor(B).

From the above information we can infer the following arrangement where G will be facing north.

Now, three corners are occupied and we are given that F is a doctor and sits at the extreme end of any row so F must be sitting at the extreme right corner of the row which is facing south. C must be an author as G sit adjacent to author.

Engineer & lawyer are not the neighbours.

The person who is an Engineer sits second to the left of the one who is a Designer So I will be a designer and D would be an engineer.

A sits third to the left of E and faces the one who is a CA named K. So E would be a businessman, A would be a singer who is facing CA (K). K will be sitting between I and D. Now we are left with professor so H, must be a professor.

Final arrangement is-
