Question
Ten persons — M, N, O, P, Q, T, U, V, W, and X — are seated around a circular table, not necessarily in the given order. Five face inward, and the other five face outward. No two persons with consecutive alphabetical names sit next to each other. At most two neighbors face the same direction. There are exactly two persons sitting between W and N. M is seated third to the right of N. The immediate neighbors of M face opposite directions. X and V sit immediately to the left of each other but are not immediate neighbors of N. O and P are seated second to the right of each other. No one sits between O and X on either side. W and Q face the same direction. X does not face outside.
Question: How many persons sit between Q and the person who sits immediately to the left of X?
