Question

Six friends, A, B, C, D, E and F are sitting in a row facing towards East. E and F are in the center, and A and B are at the ends. C is sitting on the left of A. Then match List-I with List-II
List-I:
(A) How many people are there to the right D?
(B) Who is sitting on the right of B?
(C) Who is immediate left of C?
(D) How many people are there to the left of E?
List-II:
(I) F
(II) D
(III) Four
(IV) Two
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

FirstInTest · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: B. Let's determine the seating arrangement:
Total 6 people facing East (Right is forward direction).
E and F are in the center $\Rightarrow$ positions 3 & 4.
A and B are at the ends $\Rightarrow$ positions 1 & 6.
C is on the left of A.

If A is at position 1, C cannot be to its left (as there's no position before 1). So, A must be at position 6, and B at position 1.
Arrangement so far: B _ _ _ _ A
C is to the left of A (position 6), so C is at position 5.
Arrangement so far: B _ _ _ C A
E and F are in positions 3 and 4.
Remaining position 2 must be D.

Final arrangement: B D E/F F/E C A

Now let's answer the questions:
(A) People to the right of D (pos 2): E, F, C, A (4 people). So, (A) matches with (III).
(B) Who is on the right of B (pos 1): D (pos 2). So, (B) matches with (II).
(C) Immediate left of C (pos 5): F (pos 4). So, (C) matches with (I).
(D) People to the left of E (pos 3 or 4):
If E is at pos 3, people to its left are B, D (2 people).
If E is at pos 4, people to its left are B, D, E (3 people). The options only have 'Two' or 'Four'. Since D is 2, it's likely E is at pos 3. So, (D) matches with (IV).

Final Matching: (A) - (III), (B) - (II), (C) - (I), (D) - (IV). This corresponds to option 2.
