What is the position of D?

Options:

on the immediate left of B

between A and G

between B and F

between G and C

Correct Answer:

on the immediate left of B

Explanation:

i) H is on the immediate left of A, Thus D cannot be placed at right side of H and between H and A.

H is not the neighbour of E or D, thus D cannot be placed at left of H.

ii) F is on the immediate right of B thus D cannot be placed at right of B and between B and F.

G is the neighbour of E, also D cannot be placed at one side between G and E.

iii) C is between E and F, thus D cannot be placed on another side of E and F as well.

The correct answer is Option (1) → on the immediate left of B
