Answer 1

Given: P, Q, R, S, T, U and V are sitting around a circular table facing the centre.

1) Only three people sit between R and Q when counted from the left of R.

2) T is an immediate neighbour of U as well as Q.

Case 2)

3) Only three people sit between V and U when counted from the right of U.

4) S sits to the immediate right of V.

As there is no possible position for S in case 2, therefore is eliminated.

After positioning V and S only one position is left which will be occupied by the only person left i.e. P.

Thus, four people sit between T and P when counted from the right of P.

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.
