Directions: Read the following information carefully and answer the questions given below.

Fourteen persons are sitting in two parallel rows containing seven persons each. In row 1 - H, I, J, K, L, M and N are seated and all of them are facing north. While T, U, V, W, X, Y and Z are sitting in row 2 and facing south direction, but not necessarily in the same order. Persons of row 1 face the persons of row 2.

N sits second from the left end of row 1. W faces N and sits third to the right of Y. L faces Y. One person sits between L and J, who sits at one of the extreme ends. U faces J. M sits to the immediate left of L and T faces M. V sits to the immediate right of T. H sits second to the left of L. K sits at the extreme left end of row 1. X sits to the left of Y, but does not sit at the extreme end.

Which of the following statements is/are correct regarding the seating arrangement?

The correct statement regarding the seating arrangement is Two persons sit between K and M.

Step-by-step Explanation:

We are given two parallel rows with 7 positions each, numbered 1 to 7 from Left to Right (West to East):
• Row 1 (facing North): Left end is Position 1, Right end is Position 7.
• Row 2 (facing South): Right direction is towards Position 1, Left direction is towards Position 7.

Step 1: Determine positions of N, W, Y, L, J, and U
1. N sits second from the left end of Row 1 ⇒ Row 1, Pos 2 = N.
2. W faces N ⇒ Row 2, Pos 2 = W.
3. W sits third to the right of Y (facing South, right is towards Pos 1) ⇒ Row 2, Pos 5 = Y.
4. L faces Y ⇒ Row 1, Pos 5 = L.
5. One person sits between L and J, and J sits at an extreme end. Since L is at Pos 5, J must be at the extreme right end ⇒ Row 1, Pos 7 = J.
6. U faces J ⇒ Row 2, Pos 7 = U.

Step 2: Determine positions of M, T, V, H, and K
7. M sits to the immediate left of L ⇒ Row 1, Pos 4 = M.
8. T faces M ⇒ Row 2, Pos 4 = T.
9. V sits to the immediate right of T (Row 2 faces South) ⇒ Row 2, Pos 3 = V.
10. H sits second to the left of L ⇒ Row 1, Pos 3 = H.
11. K sits at the extreme left end of Row 1 ⇒ Row 1, Pos 1 = K.

Step 3: Determine remaining positions for Row 1 and Row 2
12. The only remaining person in Row 1 is I ⇒ Row 1, Pos 6 = I.
13. X sits to the left of Y (towards Pos 7) but not at the extreme end ⇒ Row 2, Pos 6 = X.
14. The only remaining person in Row 2 is Z ⇒ Row 2, Pos 1 = Z.

Final Seating Arrangement:
• Row 2 (Facing South): Z (Pos 1) | W (Pos 2) | V (Pos 3) | T (Pos 4) | Y (Pos 5) | X (Pos 6) | U (Pos 7)
• Row 1 (Facing North): K (Pos 1) | N (Pos 2) | H (Pos 3) | M (Pos 4) | L (Pos 5) | I (Pos 6) | J (Pos 7)

Verification of Statements:
• U faces H: Incorrect (U faces J).
• M sits at one of the extreme ends: Incorrect (M is at Pos 4).
• V sits to the left of T: Incorrect (V sits to the right of T).
• Two persons sit between K and M: Correct (N and H sit between K at Pos 1 and M at Pos 4).
