[Q.9] A, B, C, D, E, F and G are playing cards sitting around a circular table. D is
not neighbour of C or E. A is neighbour of B and C. G, who is second to the
left of D, is neighbour of E and F. Which of the following statement is
correct?
(a) B is between A and D
(b) D is between F and G
(c) E is to immediate right of G
(d) F is to the immediate left of G.
[ANS] a
[SOLN] Here we have that G is second to the left of D and G is the neighbour of E
and F which implies G is sitting between E and F. But D is not neighbour of
E.
Hence EGFD  ACD.
Now, A is sitting between B and C. But D is not neighbour of C. So, B is
neighbour of D. Hence, B is between A and D.
