Solution

The correct option is D Pia
From 1, we know that Rima and Sara are at the extreme ends. This gives us two possible cases.

Case 1: Rima is at the extreme left, and Sara is at the extreme right.
Case 2: Sara is at the extreme left, and Rima is at the extreme right.


From 2, we know that Quincy is standing to the immediate right of Sara.
This means that Sara should be on the left of Quincy. This eliminates Case 1.

From 3, we know that Tara is standing next to Rima. So, Pia will stand in the center.

Pia is standing at the center.
