An Indian, an American, an Australian, a Jamaican and a European are seated in a row. The Indian do not wish to sit immediately next to the European or the Jamaican. The European and the Jamaican sit immediately next to each other. The Australian is at the extreme right end of the row. The Indian is immediately to the left of the Australian. Who is seated in the middle of the row?
Let's draw a diagram: Since there are five people, lets put in 5 seats. The Indian is to the left of the Australian (who is on the right end of the row), while he cannot sit next to the European or Jamaican. The European and Jamaican sit next to each other but cannot be seated next to the Indian so there is a gap left in between them. The only person left is the American so he/she is sat in the middle of the row.|dw:1381051027526:dw|
