Answer 1

Given:

A certain number of people are sitting in a row, facing north.

Solution:

(1) Z sits at one of the extreme ends of the row.

(2) Only one person sits to the right of S.

(3) Only one person sits between Q and S.

(4) Only two people sit between D and Z. This is possible only in Case 1.

(5) P sits to the immediate left of Q.

(6) P sits second to the right of L.

(7) K sits to the immediate right of D.

(8) L sits second to the right of D.

So here, 12 is the total number of persons seated.

Hence, '12' is the correct answer.
