Six people P,Q,R,S,T and U are sitting in a circular path who are facing centre. R is third from P in the right. Q is third from T in the left, U is between P and T and S is third from U in the left. The order of these 6 people in clockwise direction is :

The correct answer is (c) SRTUPQ.

Let’s start with P. R is third from P in the right, so R is the fourth person in the clockwise direction from P. Q is third from T in the left, so Q is the fourth person in the counterclockwise direction from T. U is between P and T, so U is the second person in the clockwise direction from P and the second person in the counterclockwise direction from T. S is third from U in the left, so S is the fourth person in the counterclockwise direction from U.

Therefore, the order of the six people in clockwise direction is:

1. P
2. U
3. T
4. Q
5. R
6. S

Here is a diagram to illustrate the seating arrangement:

[Diagram of six people sitting in a circular path, facing the center. P is to the right of R, who is to the right of U. T is to the left of Q, who is to the left of S.]

Option (a), SQRUTP, is incorrect because Q is not between P and T. Option (b), TSRQUP, is incorrect because R is not third from P in the right. Option (d), SQPUTR, is incorrect because S is not third from U in the left.
