DIRECTIONS: These questions are based on the following information. Farmer Batuk Singh has a larger square field divided into nine smaller square fields, all equal, arranged in three rows of three fields each. One side of the fields runs exactly east-west. The middle square must be planted with rice because it is wet. The wheat and barley should be continuous so that they can be harvested all at once by the mechanical harvester. Two of the field should be planted with soyabeans. The north westernmost field should be planted with peanuts and the southern third of the field is suitable only for vegetables. Now select the correct answers for the following question from the codes given above. If Batuk Singh decides to plant the wheat next to the vaunts, in which square will the barley be?         

A) The square immediately north of the rice.

B) The square immediately east of the rice.

C) The square immediately west of the rice.                

D) The square immediately north east of the rice. 

Correct Answer: D

Solution :

    Since Wheat and Barley should be continuous, therefore, Barley will be planted in the square immediately north east of the rice field.
