Question and options
A, B, C, D, E, F and G are sitting around a circular table facing the centre. B sits third to the right of E. C sits second to the left of B. A is the immediate neighbour of D and E. G sits to the immediate left of D. How many people sit between F and D when counted from the left of D?
- Three
- Two
- Four
- One
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B - Two
Seat E at 0, with 'right' = -1 and 'left' = +1 (everyone faces the centre). B is third to the right of E, at -3 = 4. C is second to the left of B, at 6. A sits between D and E, so A is at 1 (6 is taken) and D at 2. G is immediately left of D, at 3, and F takes 5. Going left from D: G, B, then F, so two people sit between them.
