In a row of five seats numbered 1 to 5 from left to right, which seat does T occupy? Statement I: T sits somewhere to the right of P, who is in seat 2. Statement II: Exactly one person sits between P and T. Which statement(s) is/are sufficient to answer?

Question

Accepted Answer

Both statements together are needed (neither alone is sufficient). From I, T is in seat 3, 4 or 5. II alone does not fix P. Together, with P in seat 2 and one person between P and T (to the right), T is in seat 4.
