So, there you have it dear friends, in puzzles and seating arrangement - nothing beats

practice there are ways or methods to solve these sums but ultimately there is

no shortcut trick'.

Although I have shared technique to solve "Circular Sitting arrangements" here.

We will discuss the ways to solve seating arrangement sums as properly as possible!

1. The kinds:

There can be two ways of seating people in a circle (could be a square too

doesn't make a difference), where people are sitting:-

(i) facing inwards towards the centre of the circle,

(ii) facing outward away from the centre of the circle.

2. When facing inwards:

Where all the persons to be arranged face the centre then

i. all their rights is in the anti-clockwise direction,

ii. their lefts is in the clockwise direction.

So, when they ask whos to the left of D, in the above diagram close your eyes

picture yourself to be D answer will be A.

If picturing in the head is confusing take the rough sheet youve drawn the diagram

on and turn it around! Turn it around so that D is directly in front of you so you

become D and now according to your left/right direction answer the questions!

Nothing simpler and easier than that!!

3. When facing outwards:

Where all the persons to be arranged face the centre then

i. all their rights is in the clockwise direction,

ii. their lefts is in the anti-clockwise direction.

Here too, try visualizing yourself in their places to answer or else turn the papers

around.

4. How to seat them:

This is the problem area for most how to correctly seat Mr. A, B and C!

Let me try breaking this problem down to smaller problems and then well tackleem!

(i)Draw a circle mark the places (4/6/7/8) and then start reading the question!

(ii)Arrange the information in every sentence if possible if not write it down

beside you circle in shorthand to be arranged when further information clarifies

the osition.

(iii)If you find a situation where, supposing, A can be seated in 2 different places

then, go ahead with one place and arrange the rest accordingly if you successfully

arrange the entire thing then the As place which you had arbitrarily decided is the

correct place!

If it is not correct youll find that your arrangement of As position is contradicting as

per other information in the question and you can then chose the other As possible

position.

Okay, another one if P has two possible ways to be seated namely Seat 1 and Seat

2. You are not understanding from the available information, where to seat P. So you,

arbitrarily seat him in either Seat 1 or Seat 2.

Lets say you seated him at Seat 2 ok now go ahead and try seating the others as

per the rest of the information in the question.

If you are able to seat em all without any contradictions or problems, you have

successfully solved the question and Ps seat that you chose is correct.

And if you find a contradiction of Ps Seat 2 then you immediately know for sure

that Seat 2 is not the right place of P and it has to be Seat 1, as there were only 2

possibilities!

(iv)Always arrange those persons around your circle, whose positions are 100%

clear and accurate. Keep the persons who you have a doubt on a little farther away so

you know whos definitely sitting correct and who you need to revise the seating for!

Or, put a tick on the persons who are seated correct.

This brings clarity to the fact that these people are sitting right and these places are

not available for further arrangement the rest need to be arranged in the available

places only.

(v)If there are 4/6/8/10 persons, i.e., even number of people and all facing one

particular direction then 2nd/ 3rd/ 4th/ 5thto the left or right is always the person

sitting opposite!

(vi)Where some are facing outward and some facing inward, then mark the places

with arrows pointing inward/outward.

Like in this figure, A and D are facing outward and so their arrows are pointing away

from the centre while, B and C are facing inward with their arrows pointing towards

the circle.

I usually more my rough sheet around without wasting my time and get the positions

(vii)Practice! The Golden Rule to solving Seating Arrangements advocated

everywhere by everyone is LOTS OF PRACTICE!

Honestly, there is no other way around it!

Some people are just born with the knack of seating people correct and some arent

I fall in that category of seating arrangement challenged! But I make up for it by

practice and perseverance! I now solve sums like I was born doing it!!

Dear Readers, practice and patience is how youll be able to solve these sums in the

exam

Best of luck!
