Study the following information
carefully answer the given questions :

Twelve persons are sitting in two
parallel rows containing six persons each, in such a way that there is an equal
distance between adjacent persons. In row–1, A, B, C, D, E and F are seated
(but not necessarily in the same order) and all of them are facing south. In
row– 2, P, Q, R, S, T and V are seated (but not necessarily in the same order)
and all of them are facing north. Therefore, in the given seating arrangement
each person seated in a row faces another person of the other row. A sits third
to the left of E. The person facing A sits second to the left of T. Two persons
are sitting between T and P. C and D are immediate neighbours. C and D do not
sit at any of the extreme ends of the line. Only one person sits between B and
C. The person facing D is an immediate neighbour of Q. V is not an immediate
neighbour of P. S does not face A.

6. Who amongst the following sits
seconds to the right of the person who faces R ?

(a) C

(b) D

(c) B

(d) E

(e) Cannot be determined

7. Which of the following
statements regarding B is true ?

(a) B sits second to the left of
C

(b) A sits to immediate left of B

(c) T faces B

(d) D is an immediate neighbour
of B

(e) The person who faces B is an
immediate neighbour of S

8. Who amongst the following
faces P ?

(a) A

(b) D

(c) C

(d) E

(e) Cannot be determined

9. Who amongst the following sits
exactly between T and R ?

(a) V

(b) Q

(c) S

(d) P

(e) Cannot be determined

10. Four of the following five are
alike in a certain way based on the given seating arrangement and thus form a
group. Which is the one that does not belong to the group ?

(a) F

(b) Q

(c) T

(d) C

(e) E

There are seven teachers (clue i) and five subjects (clue
i). Four are ladies B, C, F and G (clue iv). Rest are males. Four are married
A, B, D and F (clue v). Rest are unmarried. Mr A is a subject teacher and he
teaches either Botany or Zoology (clue vi) but (clue ix) tells Mrs B teaches
Botany, So Mr A teaches Zoology. Clue ix also tells about G being a class
teacher. Clue v says all married teachers except one are class teachers. Since
A is married and is a subject teacher, the remaining B, D and F would be class teachers.
(Clue iv) says unmarried teachers can only be PTA member whereas (clue vii)
says they are subject teachers, So they are bound to be C and E. (clue vi) says
no married female teacher has done UGC. Two male teachers have done it one is
married Mr A and one is unmarried, Mr E. Mr D hasn’t done it, so C and G must
have done it because there are four teachers who have done it (2-Chem, 1-Math,
1-Zoology). So the subject left is Physics. So obviously D and F teach Physics.
Since PTA members teach same subject (clue viii), C and E teach Chem, leaving G
to teach Maths.
