Number 7

Hi Jordyndickey, We are given a scenario where K and O are next to each other, which we could diagram as follows: K _ O _ _ _ E is that L is between N and O, and since there is only one spot left next to O, we know that L must be next to O, and N must be on the other side of L K _ O _ L N We also know from rule 1 that P must be next to N, so we have K _ O P L N And the only remaining spot then must be M. However, rule 3 tells us that M cannot be next to K, so this scenario is impossible.

Is there a deduction we could make off the bat so we don't lose time trying out each wrong answer until we get to E?
