A, B, E, G, P, L and M are sitting around a circular table facing the centre. Only two people sit between A and M when counted from the right of A. Only three people sit between P and L when counted from the right of L. M sits to the immediate right of L. E sits to the immediate right of G. Who sits fourth to the right of B?
P
G
M
E
E
Fix L first. Since M is to the immediate right of L, place M. Use the M-A and P-L conditions to fix the remaining positions clockwise.
Fix L first. Since M is to the immediate right of L, place M. Use the M-A and P-L conditions to fix the remaining positions clockwise.
Establish Reference Points
Let 7 positions be numbered clockwise 1 to 7. Place L at pos 1. M sits to the immediate right of L (facing center), so M is at pos 2.
Apply Seating Constraints
Condition 1: 2 people between A and M from the right of A. Counting right from A (A, X, X, M): A must be at pos 5. Condition 2: 3 people between P and L from the right of L (L, X, X, X, P): P must be at pos 5? No, P must be at pos 5 is wrong. Let's re-verify: L(1), M(2), X(3), X(4), A(5), X(6), X(7). 3 people from right of L means 1+4=5, so P is at 5? No, 1+4=5 is pos 5. Wait, L(1), M(2), X(3), X(4), P(5). This works.
Final Placement
G and E are adjacent (E right of G). Slots available: 3, 4, 6, 7. G at 6, E at 7. This leaves B at 4. Counting 4th to the right of B (Clockwise): B(4) тЖТ pos 5(P) тЖТ pos 6(G) тЖТ pos 7(E) тЖТ pos 1(L) (wait, looking for 4th to right). Arrangement: L(1), M(2), X(3), B(4), P(5), G(6), E(7). Clockwise is right for facing center. B(4) тЖТ P(5) is 1st, G(6) is 2nd, E(7) is 3rd, L(1) is 4th. Let's re-check: 4th right of B is L.
A: Incorrect placement. B: Incorrect person. C: Incorrect person.
D is correct because based on the circular arrangement [L, M, X, B, P, G, E], the 4th person to the right of B is L.
In circular puzzles with an odd number of people, always draw a clock-face to avoid errors in 'right' and 'left' orientation.
