a: if the data in statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question.
b: if the data in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question.
c: if the data either in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.
d: if the data even in both statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question.

Question 222

Amongst five friends seated in a straight line facing North, is B sitting at the extreme left end ?
I. B, D are immediate neighbours of each other. Similarly E, C are also immediate neighbours of each other. A sits exactly in the middle of the line.
II. A who sits exactly in the middle of the line is second to the left of C. B is not an immediate neighbour of A.

Solution

I : A sits in the middle while B,D and E,C are immediate neighbours, thus we cannot find whether B sits at extreme left or not.

II : A who sits exactly in the middle of the line is second to the left of C, => C sits at extreme right end. 

Arrangement  = _ _ A _ C

B is not an immediate neighbour of A, => B sits at extreme left end.

Arrangment = B _ A _ C

Thus, yes B is sitting at the extreme left end.

$$\therefore$$ II alone is sufficient.

=> Ans - (B)
