A, B, E, F, P, Q and R are sitting around a circular table facing the centre. Only two people sit between B and P when counted from the right of B. F sits second to the left of B. Q sits to the immediate left of A. E is not an immediate neighbour of B. Who sits third to the right of R?

Place B at the bottom (6 o'clock position), then mark F (2nd to left) and P (2 to the right from B's right, which is counter-clockwise in centre-facing) to fix the frame instantly.
Place B at the bottom (6 o'clock position), then mark F (2nd to left) and P (2 to the right from B's right, which is counter-clockwise in centre-facing) to fix the frame instantly.
Establish Reference
Place B at the 3 o'clock position (facing center). F sits 2nd to the left of B, which is at the 5 o'clock position (since seating is clockwise for left). Count 2 people to the right of B (counter-clockwise): B тЖТ Q тЖТ A тЖТ P. So, P is at the 9 o'clock position.
Fill remaining positions
We have A, Q, P, B, F, R, E. Q is immediate left of A. Since P is at 9 o'clock, A must be at 12 o'clock and Q at 1 o'clock. E cannot be a neighbor of B (3 o'clock), so E must be at 7 o'clock. This leaves R at 6 o'clock.
Determine Third to the right of R
Facing the center from R (6 o'clock), the positions to the right are 7 o'clock (E), 9 o'clock (P), and 12 o'clock (A). Thus, A sits 3rd to the right of R.
A: Correct as deduced. B: Q is to the immediate left of A, not 3rd to the right of R. C: P is 2nd to the right of R. D: E is immediate right of R.
A is correct because, based on the circular placement, A occupies the position 3 steps counter-clockwise (to the right) from R.
In circular arrangement, 'Right' implies counter-clockwise movement for people facing the center. Always draw the circle and place reference points first.
