- BE
- CF
- DCannot be determined
Correct answer
B. E
Step-by-step solution
To find who is (2^ nd ) to the right of A, we follow the fixed constraints from the provided information: 1. A's Neighbors: Since (A ) is adjacent to both (C ) and (H ), the sequence is (C-A-H ). 2. Directional Movement: Moving to the right from (A ), the (1^ st ) person is (H ). 3. The (2^ nd ) Position: The rule states (B ) is (2^ nd ) to the right of (H ), and (E ) is (3^ rd ) to the right of (C ) . This forces (E ) to sit exactly 1 seat to the right of (H ) (which is 2 seats to the right of (A )). Final Answer:
