Reading Comprehension

Study the following information carefully and answer the given questions:
Eight persons A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H sit around a circular shaped table, but not necessarily in the same order. Three persons face inside and rest face outside the centre.
Three persons sit between C and E. A is an immediate neighbour of C. Both the immediate neighbours of E face inside. D is neither an immediate neighbour of E nor C. G sits third to the left of D. G doesn’t face inside. Both the immediate neighbours of F face outside. F is not an immediate neighbour of D. H doesn’t face in the same direction as G. Immediate neighbours of G face opposite direction to each other.

1) Question

What is the position of B with respect to A?

A.

Immediate right

B.

Fifth to the right

C.

Third to the right

D.

Fourth to the left

E.

None of these

Final Arrangement:


Clues: Three persons sit between C and E. A is an immediate neighbour of C. Both the immediate neighbours of E face inside. D is neither an immediate neighbour of E nor C.
Inference: Here we get two possible cases:


Clues: G sits third to the left of D. G doesn’t face inside. Both the immediate neighbours of F face outside. F is not an immediate neighbour of D.
Inference: Above clues are placed in both cases:


Clues: H doesn’t face in the same direction as G. Immediate neighbours of G face opposite direction to each other.
Inference: Case 2 gets cancelled here because it is given that only three persons face inside.

Inference: Only place for B is left. Now, the final Arrangement is:


Fifth to the right
