Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Five books are arranged on a shelf. Book A is to the left of Book B but to the right of Book C. Book D is to the right of Book E. Which book is in the middle? (2023)
  • Step 1: Identify the relationships between the books based on the given information.
  • Step 2: From 'Book A is to the left of Book B but to the right of Book C', we can arrange them as C > A > B.
  • Step 3: From 'Book D is to the right of Book E', we can arrange them as E > D.
  • Step 4: Now we have two groups: C > A > B and E > D.
  • Step 5: Combine the two groups. Since there is no direct relationship between the two groups, we can place them together as C > A > B and E > D.
  • Step 6: To find the middle book, we need to count the total number of books. There are 5 books: C, A, B, E, D.
  • Step 7: The middle position in a list of 5 books is the 3rd position.
  • Step 8: In the arrangement C > A > B, A is the 3rd book when we consider the order of the books.
  • Order of Arrangement – Understanding the relative positions of items based on given conditions.
  • Logical Deduction – Using clues to deduce the correct order and identify specific positions.
