The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of determining who is to the immediate left of C when A, B, C, D, and E are sitting around a circular table facing the center, we will analyze the provided statements step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Circular Arrangement**: - Since A, B, C, D, and E are sitting around a circular table facing the center, we can visualize their positions as points on a circle. 2. **Analyzing Statement I**: - The first statement says, "Only A is between E and B." - This means that A must be positioned such that E and B are on either side of A. - There are two possible arrangements based on this statement: - Arrangement 1: E - A - B - Arrangement 2: B - A - E 3. **Analyzing Statement II**: - The second statement states, "D is to the immediate left of B." - This means that if we place B in a position, D must be directly to the left of B (in an anticlockwise direction). 4. **Combining the Statements**: - Let's consider the first arrangement from Statement I (E - A - B): - If B is here, then D must be to the immediate left of B. This means D would be positioned directly before B in the anticlockwise direction. - In this arrangement, we can place D to the left of B, resulting in: D - B - A - E. - Now, we need to find C's position. Since all positions are filled, C must be the remaining position. - The arrangement now looks like: D - B - A - E - C. 5. **Identifying C's Left**: - In the arrangement D - B - A - E - C, we see that E is immediately to the left of C. - Therefore, the answer to the question "Who is to the immediate left of C?" is E. ### Final Answer: E is to the immediate left of C.
