A, B, C, D, E, F and G are sitting in a line facing East. C is immediate to the right of \( D \) . \( B \) is at one of the extreme ends and has E as his neighbour. G is between E and F . D is sitting third from the south end. Who is sitting third from North ?
This is a linear arrangement puzzle. We can solve it by drawing out the seven positions in the line and filling them in step-by-step using the clues. Since all are facing East, we can consider one end of the line as North and the other as South.
(North) 1-2-3-4-5-6-7 (South)The complete arrangement from the North end to the South end is:
The question asks: "Who is sitting third from the North ?"
Counting from the North end (position 1):
Final Answer: G is sitting third from the North.
