Six persons A, B, C, D, E, and F sit around a circular table facing the center. A sits opposite D. B sits immediately to the right of A. E sits opposite B. Who sits to the immediate left of D?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. E
- Step 1: Place A at the bottom position (6 o'clock). Facing center, D is directly opposite at 12 o'clock.
- Step 2: B is immediately to the right of A, placing B at 7 o'clock.
- Step 3: E is directly opposite B, placing E at 1 o'clock.
- Step 4: Facing center from D (at 12 o'clock), D's right is toward 11 o'clock and D's left is toward 1 o'clock.
- Step 5: The person at 1 o'clock is E.
Answer
E.
Why not the others: C and F occupy the remaining positions (11 and 5 o'clock); and B is opposite E.
