LG Game 1 Question 5 Explanation, by LSATHacks

Oribe is always in the last row. To put Oribe beside an unassigned seat we must only have 2 people in the last row. It must be one of U and S. That means that the other of U and S are in the first row, along with T. I’ve drawn one way it could work but there are many possible ways.

A is wrong. Oribe could be assigned to seat 8 but could also be assigned to seat 7 if U or S were in seat 9.

B is the CORRECT. We have to put T between N and U/S.

C could be true but doesn’t have to be. U could also go in seat 1 or one in seat 3, or could even go in the last row.

D could be true but R could go in seat 4 and then seat 6 would be unassigned.

E could be true but we could also fill seat 9 as in the diagram I drew above.
