Complete Question Explanation

The correct answer choice is (B)

If T is next to V, our diagram would need to accommodate the following three blocks:

Together, these blocks would occupy all seven spaces on our setup. Since V must be either third or fourth, the following diagram represents every possible solution to this local question:

The question stem asks us to identify a pair of paintings in which the one mentioned first must be closer to the entrance than (i.e. to the left of) the one mentioned second. The local diagram immediately shows that R must be closer to the entrance than W, proving answer choice (B) correct. Answer choices (A), (C), and (D) are not necessarily true, whereas answer choice (E) cannot be true.

Again, as with any of the preceding five questions, having the templates handy would make solving this question a breeze. Only Template 5.1 allows for a TV-rotating block, proving that answer choice (B) must be true.
