Explanation:

Let’s untangle this, clue by clue:

- U sits at the 5 O’Clock seat.

- R is immediately left of U. Since they’re facing the center, left means R is at the 4 O’Clock seat.

- Q is to the right of R, so Q is at 5 O’Clock (but U is already there), so Q must be at 3 O’Clock.

- T and R have a 3-hour difference. R is at 4 O’Clock, so T could be at 1 or 7 O’Clock.

- T sits diagonally opposite Q. If Q is 3 O’Clock, diagonal would be 9 O’Clock. That doesn’t fit T’s options. Try Q at 2 O’Clock and walk it through… but the best fit is Q at 7 O’Clock, R at 4 O’Clock, U at 5 O’Clock, T at 1 O’Clock (since 4+3=7, wrap around clock), but then clues don’t mesh with diagonality.

Let’s try Q at 6 O’Clock (since sitting right of R could just mean “after” around the table):

- If R is at 5, U at 6. But U is *definitely* at 5. O’Clock!

- Stick with that: U at 5, R at 4, Q at 6.

Now, T is 3 hours apart from R: So T could be at 1 or 7 O’Clock.

Q is supposed to be diagonally opposite T. Q at 6; opposite is 12. That doesn’t fit for T.

Try R at 10, U at 11, but then U isn’t at 5.

After a few more placements, everything lines up if:

- U at 5, R at 4, Q at 6 (right of R), T at 1 (3 hours apart from R at 4), and diagonally opposite Q (Q at 7, T at 1; 6 seat apart so this works).

- There’s a 6 hours gap between P and R. R at 4, so P at 10 (4+6).

- V is immediately right of P, so V at 11.

- S is on a seat 4 hours less than P. P at 10, so S at 6.

Reviewing the options:

- Option 1: 1

- Option 2: 2

- Option 3: 6

- Option 4: 7

- Option 5: 8

S sits at seat number 6.

So, the correct answer is:

Option: 3 – 6

In summary:

- U is at 5

- R is at 4 (left of U)

- Q at 7 (right of R)

- T at 1 (three hours from R and diagonally opposite to Q)

- P at 10 (six hours difference from R)

- V at 11 (immediate right of P)

- S is 4 hours less than P = seat 6

So there you go—seat 6 is where S lands.
