8 people - A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H - are sitting at a round table facing each other. A is between E and G, whereas G is sitting second to the right of F. H is between D and B and is second to the left of F. A and B are sitting opposite each other. Who is sitting immediately to the right of G?
Seating Arrangement Logic
We need to determine the seating positions based on the given clues for 8 people around a round table.
Applying Clues Step-by-Step
- Relative Positions: G is second to the right of F, and H is second to the left of F. This establishes a relative order: H _ F _ G (moving clockwise).
- Opposite Pair: A and B are opposite each other. Let's place A at position 0. Then B is at position 4 (in a 0-7 clockwise numbering).
- A's Neighbors: A is between E and G. This means E and G are adjacent to A. Since A is at 0, E and G must occupy positions 7 and 1.
- Determining G's Position: We test the two possibilities for E and G:
- Case 1: G is at 1, E is at 7. Check G relative to F: G (1) is 2nd right of F. This means F must be at position 7 (1 - 2 = -1, which is 7 mod 8). However, E is already at 7. This case is impossible.
- Case 2: G is at 7, E is at 1. Check G relative to F: G (7) is 2nd right of F. This means F must be at position 5 (7 - 2 = 5). This case works.
- Placing H: H is 2nd to the left of F. F is at 5. Left 1 is position 4 (B). Left 2 is position 3. So, H is at 3.
- Placing D and B: H is between D and B. H is at 3, B is at 4. The sequence must be D-H-B. Therefore, D is at position 2.
- Completing the Arrangement: The current arrangement is: A(0), E(1), D(2), H(3), B(4), F(5). The remaining people are C and G. The remaining seats are 6 and 7. We already placed G at 7. So C must be at 6.
Final Seating Order (Clockwise)
The final arrangement starting from A (position 0) is: A, E, D, H, B, F, C, G.
Answering the Question
The question asks who is sitting immediately to the right of G.
- G is at position 7.
- The position immediately to the right of G (position 7) is position 0.
- A is sitting at position 0.
Therefore, A is sitting immediately to the right of G.
