Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven persons are A, E, H, J, M, P, S and T.
1) H sits second to the left of S.
2) T and H sit immediate next to each other.
3) The person who sits opposite to A sits immediate right to P.
4) J sits two places away from A.
5) J does not sit at any corner.
6) A does not sit to the immediate right of S. So, case 1 is eliminated it cannot fulfill these conditions.
7) M and A faces the same direction. So, cases 2(a, b) and 4(a, b) are eliminated. Hence, the final arrangement is as follows
Since, T and J sits opposite to each other so if we take any direction of them we get same number of persons sitting between them.
Hence, the correct answer is three.
