@Patole.

They said A and P are at the ends, that's not just enough for you to know where each of them lies but the fact that they said are lies to the left of A there you realize A must be at the right end then P at the left end.


So the pattern will be PXSZRA or PXZSRA, I hope it helps.

Insufficient information given in the question, there may raise 4 possible sequences and all are correct.

1)PXSZRA
2)PRSZXA
3)PXZSRA
4)PRSZXA

Since, it is not given that weather R is at immediate left to A or not.
So, there might be two possible sequences, ie, (1)PXSZRA and (2)PRSZXA.

Also, order for the middle letters S and Z is not given.
So, we can also write sequence as (3)PXZSRA and (4)PRSZXA.

According to question, s and z is the middle but doesn't mention the position , So the take the position s and z is . . s/z. .z/s . .

It can even be R as it is not mentioned that R is at the immediate left of A.

How do we know whether they are facing towards North or South?
