Six friends, A, B, C, D, E and F, are sitting around a circular table facing the centre. D is third to the right of B. F is to the immediate right of D. C is between D and E. Who is sitting between B and F?

  1. A
    C
  2. B
    E
  3. C
    D
  4. D
    A

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's determine the positions step-by-step around the circular table facing the centre:D is third to the right of B: Since there are 6 people, being third to the right is the same as being opposite to B. Let's place B at position 1, then D will be at position 4.F is to the immediate right of D: Moving anticlockwise (right from facing centre) from D at position 4, F is placed at position 5.C is between D and E: Since D is at position 4 and F is at position 5, the other side of D is position 3. So, C must be at position 3, and E must be at position 2.Remaining position: The only remaining person is A, who will occupy the last remaining position 6.Now, checking the arrangement in order (1 to 6): B, E, C, D, F, A.Looking at the neighbors of B (position 1) and F (position 5), we see that A (position 6) is sitting directly between B and F.
