These questions are based on the information given below.
Seven persons – A through G, are sitting around a circular table. G is adjacent to B and C. E is not sitting to the immediate right of F. C is to the immediate right of E. F is sitting to the immediate right of A.
Which among the following is true?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
Assuming all persons are facing the center of the circular table:
• Right corresponds to the anti-clockwise direction.
• Left corresponds to the clockwise direction.
Step-by-step arrangement:
• C is to the immediate right of E: Place E, then C is immediately anti-clockwise to E.
• G is adjacent to B and C: G sits between C and B, so the sequence becomes E → C → G → B.
• F is to the immediate right of A: A and F must sit together in the order A → F.
• E is not to the immediate right of F: F cannot be immediately before E, so D must sit between F and E.
Thus, moving anti-clockwise (to the right):
E → C → G → B → A → F → D
Checking the options:
• Moving clockwise (to the left) from E: 1st left is D, 2nd left is F, and 3rd left is A.
Therefore, A is three places away to the left of E is true.
