✓ S not adjacent to R

Answer: S sits second to the right of T.

Solution Approach:

Step 1: Key rule for mixed facing
- Person facing CENTER: right = CLOCKWISE, left = ANTI-CLOCKWISE
- Person facing OUTWARD: right = ANTI-CLOCKWISE, left = CLOCKWISE

Step 2: Draw 8-seat circle (positions 1–8 clockwise)

Step 3: Start with definite information
- Fix T (faces center) at position 1 (reference point)
- N faces outward, sits third to the RIGHT of T:
T faces center → right = clockwise
3 CW from pos 1 → pos 4
N = pos 4 ✓

Step 4: Apply relative positions
- M sits second to the LEFT of T (pos 1):
T faces center → left = anti-clockwise
2 anti-CW from pos 1 → pos 7
M faces same as N → OUTWARD
- Q faces center, sits immediately to the RIGHT of M (pos 7):
M faces outward → right = anti-clockwise
1 anti-CW from pos 7 → pos 6

Step 5: Fill remaining persons
- O immediately to the RIGHT of T(pos 1, center→CW): pos 2
- P opposite T(pos 1): pos 5
- S not adjacent to N(pos 4): adj = pos 3 & 5
