Six friends P, Q, R, S, T and U are standing in two rows facing one another P is the middle of one row. U is to the left to S and facing R, Q and T are not in the same row. Only one person is in between R and T. Who faces P?
The clue "one person is in between R and T" places R and T at the ends of one row. The clue "U is to the left to S and facing R" fixes the opposite row as U S _, with U facing R. The clue "Q, R and T are not in the same row" forces Q into the last empty spot in the row with U and S. Finally, "P is in the middle" places P in the only remaining middle spot, which is in the row with R and T.
Top Row: R P T
↓ ↓ ↓
Bottom Row: U S Q
Conclusion: From the final arrangement, we can see that S is the person facing P.
