Q:

Direction: Read the following information carefully and answer the questions given below:

7 people – A, B, C, D, L, M and N are sitting in a single row facing towards the north (not necessarily in the same order). All are sitting at equal distances to each other.

The person who is an Actor is sitting second to the left of M while the person who will travel to France is sitting third to the right of M. N is sitting second to the right of the person who is a Principal. N is neither an immediate neighbour of M nor is sitting at any of the extreme ends. Four persons are sitting between A and D. D is not an Actor and A is not sitting at any of the extreme ends. The person who will travel to Canada is sitting third to the left of D. Two persons are sitting between C and the person who is a Banker. N is not an immediate neighbour of C. L is sitting third to the left of the person who is an Actuary.
