Each of the questions below consists of a question and two statements numbered I and H are given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and –
Six friends- A, B, C, D, E and F- are sitting around a circular table. Some of them are facing outside while some others are facing towards the centre. What is theposition of C with respect to F ?
I. C is sitting second to the left of D. D is facing towards the centre. F is an immediate neighbour of both A and D. E is sitting second to the right of B. B is not an immediate neighbour of A. F faces just opposite to that of B.
II. Two persons are sitting between D and E. D and E are facing towards the centre. E is an immediate neighbour of both C and A. F faces the same direction asthat of D. D is an immediate neighbour of both B and F. F is not an immediate neighbour of C.
Arranging according to statement 1,we get the following arrangement.
B is facing outward ( Denoted in red) and D and F are facing inward ( denoted by green). The direction others are facing is unknown. We can see that the position of C with respect to F is third to the left or right.
Thus, statement 1 alone is sufficient to answer the question.
Using statement 2, we can arrive at the following diagram.
D,E and F are facing the centre. Again, we can see that C is third to the left/right of F.
Thus, statement 2 alone is sufficient to answer the question.
Hence, using the data from any one of the statements, the question can be solved.
Hence, option C is the right answer.
