A, B, C, D, E and F are sitting around a circular table facing the centre. A sits second to the right of E. F is the immediate neighbour of D and E. C sits second to the left of B. What is the position of F with respect to C?
Third to the right
Immediate right
Second to the left
Third to the left
Second to the left
Fix the reference person (E) first, then place A, F, and D using immediate neighbour and right/left clues. Finally place B and C.
Fix the reference person (E) first, then place A, F, and D using immediate neighbour and right/left clues. Finally place B and C.
Step 1: Position E and A
Place E at the top. Since A sits second to the right of E, A is placed at the top-right position.
Step 2: Place F and D
F is the immediate neighbour of D and E. Since E is at the top, F must be to the left of E, and D is the immediate neighbour of F, placing D at the bottom-left.
Step 3: Place B and C
The remaining positions are filled by B and C. C sits second to the left of B, completing the circular order (clockwise: E, A, B, C, D, F).
Step 4: Determine F's position with respect to C
Starting from C (facing the centre), moving to the right (counter-clockwise or clockwise depending on view): 1st right is D, 2nd right is F (or third to the right counting clockwise from C: C тЖТ D тЖТ F тЖТ E тЖТ A тЖТ B тЖТ F is 3rd to the right).
A: 'Immediate right' is incorrect because F is separated by D from C. B: 'Second to the left' is incorrect as F is on the right side when moving from C. D: 'Third to the left' is incorrect since moving right leads to F.
C is correct because starting from C and moving to the right around the circular table, F is positioned as third to the right.
In circular arrangements facing the centre, always remember that 'right' corresponds to anti-clockwise movement and 'left' corresponds to clockwise movement when visualizing from the top.
