Question 51
EasyOriginal questionFour friends sit in two rows of two, facing each other. Kiran and Lata sit in the row facing north; Mohan and Nita sit in the row facing south. Kiran sits at the left end of his row, and Mohan faces Lata. Who sits immediately to the left of Nita?
Show the answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Kiran is at the west end of the north-facing row (left = west there), so Lata is at the east end.
Mohan faces Lata, so Mohan is at the east end of the south-facing row and Nita at the west end.
Facing south, Nita's left points east, where Mohan sits.
Worth noting
'No one' comes from thinking Nita is at the left end. The west end is the RIGHT end for someone facing south.
