The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of seating arrangement around a round table, we will follow the clues step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the first clue:** - C is just left of E. - This means if E is sitting at a position, C will be immediately to the left of E when facing the center. 2. **Position E and C:** - Let's place E at position 1. Therefore, C will be at position 6 (to the left of E). ``` Position: 1 (E) - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 (C) ``` 3. **Use the second clue:** - A is the only one between D and E. - Since E is at position 1, A must be at position 2 or 6. However, C is already at position 6, so A must be at position 2. This means D must be at position 3. ``` Position: 1 (E) - 2 (A) - 3 (D) - 4 - 5 - 6 (C) ``` 4. **Use the third clue:** - B is sitting opposite E. - Since E is at position 1, B must be at position 4 (the opposite position). ``` Position: 1 (E) - 2 (A) - 3 (D) - 4 (B) - 5 - 6 (C) ``` 5. **Use the fourth clue:** - D is the only one between A and B. - We already placed D at position 3, A at position 2, and B at position 4, which satisfies this condition. ``` Position: 1 (E) - 2 (A) - 3 (D) - 4 (B) - 5 - 6 (C) ``` 6. **Identify the remaining position for F:** - The only position left is position 5, so F must be sitting there. ``` Position: 1 (E) - 2 (A) - 3 (D) - 4 (B) - 5 (F) - 6 (C) ``` ### Conclusion: F is sitting at position 5.
