Eight persons P, Q, R, S, T, U, V and W sit at equal distances around a circular table, all facing the centre. P sits opposite T. Q sits between P and R. U sits opposite Q. W sits next to P but not next to Q. V sits next to U but not next to T. Who sits opposite R?
V sits opposite R. Fixing P and T opposite each other, with Q and R on one side of P and W on the other, U opposite Q goes at position 6. V then takes position 7, directly across from R.

Explanation
Place P at position 1 and T at 5. Q is at 2 and R at 3, so W, the other neighbour of P, is at 8. U is opposite Q, so U is at 6. V is next to U but not next to T (position 5), so V is at 7 and S is at 4. Position 7 is opposite R at 3. S is opposite W, so S is the distractor.

One question tells you little. A timed set on Seating Arrangements shows your real accuracy, how long you take and where you lose marks.
