There are 2 cases of arrangement which satisfy all the conditions, and for this question option C is satisfied in both cases. So, the correct answer is option C.

The answer would be data inadequate because there is one way more in which they can sit i.e. PQWSUVTR in this S would be at the immediate left of W.

I think there can be 2 possibilities of circular arrangement in seating arrangement.

Q,W,S is placed together if we move from P to U anticlockwise. But we can arrange them in order W,S,Q together too, when we move from P to U in same direction as previous. Kindly correct me if I'm missing something.

In my logic, the statement "W is not between U and S" means that some letter have to fill between U_ S.

So, my arrangement is "PRTVUQSW".

"WPRTVUQS" in cw direction is also fulfilling all conditions.

So answer should be data inadequate.

I Think there is two way PRTVUSWQ and PRTVQSW to satisfies the condition. In 1st type of circle, it satisfies (3)option. In 2nd type, It satisfies (2) an(3) options. So, the common ans is 3rd option.

Correct me if I wrong.

I think it will be " Data is inadequate".

Because it is not the only figure according to the data.

There can be another figure.

With W-Q-S in between P &V.
