Question:
Six friends A, B, C, D, E, F sit around a circular table facing the centre.
D is sitting between A and E. C is sitting between F and B. A and F are opposite to each other. D sits to the left of A. Who is on the right of B?
Six friends A, B, C, D, E, F sit around a circular table facing the centre.
D is sitting between A and E. C is sitting between F and B. A and F are opposite to each other. D sits to the left of A. Who is on the right of B?
Show Hint
In circular seating, always fix one person first and place others using definite clues like “between” and “opposite”.

The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Concept:
In circular arrangement (facing center):
• Left means clockwise.
• Right means anticlockwise.
Step 1: Place A first.
Assume A at one position. Given: \[ D \text{ sits to the left of A} \] So D is immediately clockwise to A.
Step 2: Use “D is between A and E”.
Thus arrangement becomes: \[ A - D - E \]
Step 3: Use “A and F are opposite”.
So F sits opposite A.
Step 4: Use “C is between F and B”.
Remaining arrangement: \[ F - C - B \] Final circular arrangement: \[ A \rightarrow D \rightarrow E \rightarrow F \rightarrow C \rightarrow B \] (all facing center)
Step 5: Find who is right of B.
Since all face center, right means anticlockwise. To the right of B is: \[ C \] Thus, the required answer is: \[ \boxed{C} \]
