Study the following information carefully and answer the given questions.
B, C, D, E, F, G, H and I are sitting around a circular table facing the centre but not necessarily in the same order.
• Only one person sits between D and E. B sits to the immediate right of E.
• Only three people sit between F and G.
• C sits to the immediate left of G.
• G is not an immediate neighbour of H.
• E sits second to the left of C.
If all the persons are made to sit in alphabetical order in anti clockwise direction, starting from B, the positions of how many, excluding B, would remain unchanged ?
Let’s first number the 8 seats.
We know that C sits to the immediate left of G and E sits second to the left of C.
Thus, let C sit at 5. This implies, G sits at 4 and E at 7.
Only one person sits between E and D. Thus, D has to sit at 1. (5 is already occupied.)
Only three people sit between F and G. This implies, F has to sit opposite G, at 8.
Since H and G are not neighbors I will sit at 3 and H at 2.
The final arrangement:
