A, B, C, D, E, F and G are playing cards sitting in a circle. F is 2nd to the right of G. B is neighbour of F but not of E. E, the neighbour of C, is 4th to the right of G. D is between E and A. Who is to the immediate left of G?
To solve this problem, we can use the following steps:
- Draw a circle to represent the players sitting around the table.
- Use the given information to fill in the positions of the players as follows:
- F is 2nd to the right of G, so we can place G in any position and place F two positions to the right of G.
- B is a neighbor of F, so we can place B in one of the two positions adjacent to F.
- E is not a neighbor of B, so we can place E in one of the two positions that are not adjacent to B.
- E is the neighbor of C, so we can place C in one of the two positions adjacent to E.
- D is between E and A, so we can place D in the remaining position between E and A.
- Determine who is to the immediate left of G by counting clockwise around the circle from G.
Using this method, we can fill in the positions of the players as follows:
C E D
B A G F
Since F is to the right of G, we can count clockwise from G to find the player to the left of G. Therefore, the player to the immediate left of G is A.
