Question

Seven people A, B, C, D, E, F and G are sitting around a circular table, facing the center (but not necessarily in the same order). G is sitting third to the left of E. A is sitting to the immediate left of G. D is the immediate neighbour of A and B. F is sitting to the immediate left of C.How many people are sitting between F and D when counted from the right of F?

• A. Three
• B. Two
• C. Five
• D. Four

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Three

Let’s arrange them step by step (all facing the center).

• Place E anywhere.

• G is third to the left of E.

• A is immediately left of G.

• D is an immediate neighbour of both A and B.

• F is immediately left of C.

A valid arrangement is:

E → B → D → A → G → C → F (clockwise)

Now count from the right of F (since all face center, right means anticlockwise):

From F to D:
F → C → G → A → D

People between F and D:

• C

• G

• A

Total = 3 people

Answer: 3
