Eight persons namely A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H are sitting in a straight line from East to West. Some are facing North direction and some are facing South direction. H sits to the third left of C and faces South. F is sitting at one of the extreme ends and is facing North. B and G are facing in same direction and person sitting between them is facing in opposite direction. A is sitting third from left end and is facing South direction. A is sitting adjacent to and both are facing in opposite direction. is sitting to the right of and both are facing in same direction. C is facing in North direction. A and D are not neighbours. Neighbors of H are facing in same direction which is opposite to the direction of H is facing. E sits to the right of A . Who is sitting third from the eastern end of the arrangement?
Options
- AE
- BG
- CB
- DC
Correct answer
C. B
Step-by-step solution
To solve the linear arrangement for the eight individuals (A-H) sitting from East to West, we map their positions:
- F is at the extreme East end (Position 1) facing North.
- A sits 3rd from the Left/West end (Position 6) facing South.
- E sits to the right of A (Position 7) facing North.
- C (North) and H (South) are placed such that H is 3rd to the left of C. This puts C at Position 2 and H at Position 5.
- B faces North and D sits to its right, placing B at Position 8 and D at Position 4.
- G sits at Position 3.
The third person from the Eastern end (Position 3) is G.
Correct Option: (B) G
