D, E, F, G, L, M and N are sitting around a circular table facing the centre. Only one person sits between L and E when counted from the left of E. G sits third to the right of N. M sits third to the left of F. G sits to the immediate right of M. D is not an immediate neighbour of M. How many people sit between D and E when counted from the right of D?
Four
Two
Three
One
Three
Fix the position of F and M first based on the 'third to the left' and 'immediate right' clues, then place the rest accordingly.
Fix the position of F and M first based on the 'third to the left' and 'immediate right' clues, then place the rest accordingly.
Establish Reference Points
Let F be at the top position. M sits third to the left of F, placing M at the bottom position (in a 7-person circle). G is to the immediate right of M, placing G to the immediate right of M (assuming anti-clockwise seating or standard perspective relative to the center).
Positioning Remaining Members
G is third to the right of N. Based on M and G's positions, N must be placed such that G is third to his right. Placing E and L: One person sits between L and E (counted from left of E). Given all constraints, the final sequence clockwise is F, D, N, L, M, G, E.
Calculate Count
The question asks for the number of people between D and E when counted from the right of D. Looking at the clockwise arrangement D тЖТ N тЖТ L тЖТ M тЖТ G тЖТ E. The people between D and E in the rightward direction are N, L, M, and G. Total count = 4.
A: Incorrect, count is 4. B: Incorrect, count is 4. D: Incorrect, count is 4.
Four is correct because, based on the seating arrangement D-N-L-M-G-E-F, there are exactly four people (N, L, M, G) between D and E when counting from the right of D.
In circular puzzles with an odd number of people, always draw the circle and place the most constrained person first to avoid conflicts.
