Explanation :

We have:

  • B sits three places left of O, who neither from grade II nor sits at end of the row.
  • Person in-front of O sits immediate right of M.
  • One person sits between C and M, who sits facing N.C sits to the right of M.
  • M neither sits adjacent to vacant chair nor sits adjacent to P.

Based on above given information we have:

Again, we have:

  • P sits on the chair third to the left of K, who neither sits adjacent to N nor sits adjacent to O. P is neither an immediate neighbour of O nor N. So, case 1(b) gets eliminated.
  • G sits facing K and sits in-front of the one who sits on the chair which is third to left of E. So, case 1(a) gets eliminated
  • One person sits between L and E. So, case 1(b):I gets eliminated now.
  • Person in-front of L sits adjacent of J.
  • H sits immediate left of D.
  • I neither sits adjacent to B nor from grade III.
  • F sits to the right of P but not next to K.

Based on above given information we have final arrangement as follows:

1) Answer: E

2) Answer: C

3) Answer: A

4) Answer: B

Clearly, one person sits between both the pair of person, thus N must be related to D.

Hence, option B is correct choice.

5) Answer: D
