A, B, C, D, E and F are sitting around a circular table facing the centre. Only two people sit between F and C. D sits to an immediate right of F. A is an immediate neighbour of B and C. What is the position of E with respect to B?
Immediate right
Second to the left
Immediate left
Third to the right
Third to the right
Fix the reference person (F) first, place D immediately to their right, and use spatial gaps to lock C, A, B, and E in order.
Fix the reference person (F) first, place D immediately to their right, and use spatial gaps to lock C, A, B, and E in order.
Step 1: Place F and D
Assume 6 persons A, B, C, D, E, F are seated facing the centre around a circular table. D sits to the immediate right of F. If F is placed at the top position, D sits at the next clockwise position.
Step 2: Position C
Only two people sit between F and C. Counting two positions away from F in either direction places C exactly opposite to F on the circular table.
Step 3: Position A and B
A is an immediate neighbour of both B and C. Since C is at the bottom, its neighbours are adjacent slots. Placing A next to C and B next to A leaves the remaining empty seat for E.
Step 4: Determine E's Position relative to B
In the final verified seating arrangement clockwise: F тЖТ D тЖТ A тЖТ C тЖТ E тЖТ B. Moving left (counter-clockwise) from B, E is encountered at the second position (Second to the left).
A: Immediate right is incorrect since E is separated from B by another seat. B: Immediate left describes the adjacent neighbour, not E. C: Third to the right is incorrect as E is 2 positions away.
D is correct because E is seated at the second position to the left of B in the circular arrangement.
For circular arrangements facing the centre, always remember that 'right' corresponds to clockwise movement and 'left' corresponds to counter-clockwise movement.
