Question : Directions: A question is given followed by two statements numbered (I) and (II). You have to decide whether the data provided in the statement/s are sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and choose your answer carefully.
Question: P, Q, R, S, T, U, and V are 7 people standing in a row all facing North (not necessarily in the same order). Who is standing second to the right of T?
Statements:
(I) U is standing 3rd from the right end and 2nd to the left of R.
(II) Q is standing to the immediate right of T. Q is standing 2nd to the left of P.
Option 1: The data in both statements (I) and (II) together are sufficient to answer the question
Option 2: The data in statement (II) alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement (I) alone is not sufficient to answer the question
Option 3: The data in statement (I) alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement (II) alone is not sufficient to answer the question
Option 4: The data in both statements (I) and (II) together are NOT sufficient to answer the question

Correct Answer: The data in both statements (I) and (II) together are NOT sufficient to answer the question
Solution :
Given:
(I) U is standing 3rd from the right end and 2nd to the left of R.
(II) Q is standing to the immediate right of T. Q is standing 2nd to the left of P.
As we can see different cases were made from statement II, so we cannot confirm a single seating arrangement for the given. So, we cannot determine which person is standing second to the right of T.
So, both the statements are insufficient to answer. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
