Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
If five friends are sitting in a circle and A is not next to B, while C is sitting between A and D, who is sitting next to E?
Steps
Concepts
Step 1: Visualize the five friends sitting in a circle. Let's label them A, B, C, D, and E.
Step 2: According to the question, C is sitting between A and D. This means the arrangement looks like A, C, D or D, C, A.
Step 3: The question also states that A is not next to B. This means B cannot be next to A in the arrangement.
Step 4: Since A is not next to B, the only possible arrangement is D, C, A, and then we need to place B and E.
Step 5: The only available spots left for B and E are next to D and C. Since A is not next to B, B must sit next to E.
Step 6: Therefore, E must be sitting next to D.
