**Question:** L attends meeting in which of the following departments?

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. **Days and employees:** The meetings are from Monday to Sunday, one employee per day.

2. **Given:** L attends meeting on Thursday.

3. **Q attends immediately before L:** So, Q attends on Wednesday.

4. **Two employees attend between L and HR attendee:** So HR attendee is either Monday or Sunday (since Thursday is L's day).

5. **N attends Administrative department.**

6. **Only one employee attends Finance; Administrative and Finance meetings have three employees between them, with Administrative before Finance.**

7. **Finance meeting is not on Saturday.**

8. **The number of employees between L and Finance attendee equals the number between O and Security attendee. Security meeting is before O's meeting. O does not attend HR.

9. **P attends before R, and the number of employees between L and P equals that between L and R.**

10. **R does not attend Security.**

11. **O does not attend immediately after L.**

12. By analyzing the above conditions and placing employees accordingly, it is found that L attends the Security department meeting.

**Answer:** Security
