Seven cousins K, M, P, R, S, T and V sit on Row 14 of a wedding hall, all facing north; the chairs are numbered 1 to 7 from left to right. R sits exactly in the middle. T sits at the extreme right end. Only one person sits between T and P. S sits at one of the two ends. K sits immediately to the right of S. M sits somewhere to the right of P. How many people sit between K and T?

Question

Accepted Answer

Four. R is on 4 and T on 7, so P (one seat between) is on 5. S takes the free end, 1, and K is on 2. M must be right of P, so M is on 6, leaving V on 3. Order: S, K, V, R, P, M, T. Between K (2) and T (7) are chairs 3, 4, 5 and 6: four people.
