Seating Arrangement
CMAT 2018 · Logical Reasoning · Medium · Seating Arrangement
Three girls K, L, M and three boys N, Z and P are sitting around a table facing inwards playing cards. K and L do not sit next to each other. Z and P are opposite each other. M is sitting to the immediate right of P. If K is not between Z and M, then N is not next to P. Which of the following is not an arrangement (in clockwise direction) satisfying the conditions given above?
- A.
NK Z LMP
- B.
PKN Z LM
- C.
LN Z KMP
- D.
KMPLN Z
A
Explanation
In option A (NK Z LMP), N is adjacent to P in the circular arrangement (as NK Z LMP wraps around from P to N). If K is not between Z and M, N should NOT be next to P, but in option A, N is next to P, violating the condition.
