B, C, D, E, F, G and K are sitting around a circular table, facing the centre. B sits third to the left of E. F sits second to the left of C. Only E sits between K and F. D is not an immediate neighbour of B. How many people sit between G and F when counted from the right of G?

Fix the reference point (e.g., E) and place others based on relative positions (left/right). Use a circular representation to count gaps.
Fix the reference point (e.g., E) and place others based on relative positions (left/right). Use a circular representation to count gaps.
Establish Reference
Place E at the top. Since B is 3rd to the left of E, B is at position 5 (going counter-clockwise/left). Positions: 1:E, 2:?, 3:?, 4:?, 5:B, 6:?, 7:?
Incorporate Clues
Only E sits between K and F, meaning K and F are at 7 and 2. F is 2nd left of C. Placing C at 3 makes F at 1 (impossible, E is 1) or placing C at 6 makes F at 4. If C is 3, F is 1 (no). Let's place F at 4, so C is 6. Now K must be 2. Remaining spots are 3 and 7 for D and G. Since D is not neighbor to B, D cannot be 6 or 4. D must be 7.
Final Seating Order
The order facing the centre is: 1:E, 2:K, 3:G, 4:F, 5:C, 6:B, 7:D. (Re-checking: F is 2nd left of C. If C is 5, 2nd left is 3. Yes, F is at 3. G is at 2. K is 7.) Correct sequence clockwise: E, K, G, F, C, B, D. Counting from G's right (towards F): Between G and F there are 0 people if immediate, but looking at positions: G is 3, F is 4. No. Let's re-verify: F 2nd left of C. E between K and F. K-E-F sequence. If E=1, K=7, F=2 (or vice versa). If F=2, C=4. G and D left. D not near B. Correct sequence: 1:E, 2:F, 3:C, 4:B, 5:G, 6:D, 7:K. Check: F is 2nd left of C? If C is 3, left is 2 (F). Correct. Only E between K and F? 7:K, 1:E, 2:F. Correct. D not neighbor to B? B is 4, D is 6. Correct. How many between G and F? G is 5, F is 2. Counting right of G (5 тЖТ 6 тЖТ 7 тЖТ 1 тЖТ 2): 6, 7, 1. That is 3 people.
B: 2 is incorrect based on the calculated gap. C: 1 is incorrect. D: 4 is incorrect.
B is correct because counting from the right of G (position 5) towards F (position 2) involves indices 6, 7, and 1, resulting in 3 people.
In circular puzzles, always verify the 'left' and 'right' orientation relative to the direction of the face (center or outward) to avoid simple directional errors.
