Exactly between Deepa and Caramel

Exactly between Caramel and Bidisha 

Exactly between Bidisha and Ellen

Correct Answer:

Exactly between Caramel and Bidisha 

Explanation:

Let us arrange the girls on the bench, numbered 1 - 5

1. Ellen is siting at one end of the bench with nobody to her left

⇒ Ellen is placed at position 5.

2.  Caramel is sitting to the immediate left of Deepa, who is sitting at the end of the bench.

⇒ Deepa sits at position 1 and Caramel at 2.

3.  Amar is sitting to the right of Bidisha.

⇒ Bidisha is placed at position 4, where right seat is vacant for Amar. The complete arrangement, hence obtained is:

Thus, the position of Amar is exactly between Caramel and Bidisha.
