Six friends, Aman, Bunty, Chintu, Doli, Esha and Fara, are sitting around a circular table, facing the centre. Chintu is to the immediate left of Doli. Fara sits between Aman and Esha, and Esha sits between Fara and Doli.
Who is sitting to the immediate left of Fara?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → Esha
Facing the centre, a person’s immediate left is the next seat clockwise. “Sits between” means next to both.
Fara is between Aman and Esha, and Esha is between Fara and Doli, so four friends sit together: Aman, Fara, Esha, Doli
Chintu is the next seat clockwise from Doli. If the four read clockwise Doli, Esha, Fara, Aman, that seat would be Esha’s, so they must read clockwise Aman, Fara, Esha, Doli
Chintu sits next clockwise after Doli, and Bunty takes the last seat, between Chintu and Aman
The next seat clockwise from Fara is Esha’s, so Esha is to the immediate left of Fara
