Reveal answer & explanation
Correct answer: C) U
Explanation
When facing the centre, a person's left is the clockwise neighbour. Put P at seat 0 and number seats clockwise: S at 3, Q at 1, R opposite Q at 4. T and U take seats 2 and 5; seat 5 is next to P, so T is at 2 and U at 5. P's immediate right is the anticlockwise neighbour, seat 5, i.e. U.
