Zorluk: OrtaSeating Arrangement

Six students—K, L, M, N, O, and P—are sitting in a straight line facing North.

1. K sits third to the right of N, and neither of them sits at the extreme ends of the line.
2. O sits to the immediate left of P.
3. P does not sit at an extreme end.
4. M sits to the right of K.

Based on the seating arrangement, match the students (Left) with their correct seating position descriptions (Right).

  • Student LSitting exactly at the extreme left end
  • Student NSitting immediately between L and O
  • Student OSitting third to the left of M
  • Student PSitting exactly between O and K

Cevap

Student L sits at the extreme left end; Student N sits immediately between L and O; Student O sits third to the left of M; Student P sits exactly between O and K.
Based on the logical deduction of the constraints, the final left-to-right order is exactly: L, N, O, P, K, M. The matching pairs perfectly describe each student's relative placement in this deduced sequence.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the possible positions for N and K.
N is at position 2 and K is at position 5.
Since K is third to the right of N, the possible position pairs for (N, K) are (1,4), (2,5), and (3,6). The constraints state that neither N nor K sits at the extreme ends (1 and 6). Therefore, they must occupy positions 2 and 5.
2
Determine the position of M.
M is placed at position 6.
M sits to the right of K. Since K is at position 5, the only available seat to the right is position 6.
3
Determine the positions of O and P.
O is at position 3 and P is at position 4.
O is to the immediate left of P, requiring two adjacent empty seats. The only adjacent available seats are 3 and 4. Thus, O takes seat 3 and P takes seat 4. This also satisfies the condition that P is not at an extreme end.
4
Determine the final remaining position for L.
L is placed at position 1.
Seat 1 is the only unoccupied position remaining. The complete seating arrangement from left to right is L, N, O, P, K, M.
