DIRECTIONS: Study the following information to answer the given questions.

There are 8 friends A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H seated in a circle facing the cent re. AC, DG, HE and FB are seated adjacent to each other. A is also seated adjacent to H. B is 2nd to the right of H. E is 3rd to the right of C.

What is C’ s position with reference to E?

As per the given information,

There are 8 friends A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H seated in a circle facing the centre.

• B is 2nd to the right of H.
•  A is also seated adjacent to H. 

There are two possibilities:

• AC, DG, HE and FB are seated adjacent to each other.
• E is 3rd to the right of C.​

Here, Case II will be eliminated as it contradicts the given statement.

Thus, the final arrangement is:

Clearly, C’ s position with reference to E is '5th to the right'.

Hence, the correct answer is "5th to the right".
