Start by placing the person mentioned most frequently (here, D or F), then use relative positions clockwise and counter-clockwise for circular arrangements.
Step 1: Fix F and D
D sits third to the left of F. If F is at the top, moving counter-clockwise (left) three positions places D at the bottom.
Step 2: Place G and E
G sits second to the left of D. Also, G sits to the immediate right of E, which fixes E and G relative to D.
Step 3: Place A, B, and C
B sits to the immediate left of A. Completing the remaining vacant seats around the circle places A, B, and C in order.
Step 4: Determine D's position with respect to B
B is seated at the bottom-left position. Moving along the circle to the left, D is situated as the second person to the left of B.
A: Immediate left is incorrect since there is one person between B and D. C: Second to the right is incorrect as the direction of counting is reversed. D: Immediate right is incorrect as D is counter-clockwise from B.
B is correct because D is seated second to the left of B in the circular arrangement.
In circular seating questions facing the center, 'left' corresponds to counter-clockwise movement and 'right' corresponds to clockwise movement.
