G joins after A.How many people sit between C and the person whose joining date is April ?Question 23Answera.Oneb.Twoc.Threed.Four
Solution
To answer this question, we need to arrange the information given in the question in a logical order.
- G sits third to the right of the person who joins in May.
- The person who joins in August sits second to the right of G.
- A and E are immediate neighbors of each other. Neither A nor E has joining dates in either May or August. Neither A nor E is an immediate neighbor of G.
- H sits third to the right of the person whose joining date is in January. Neither A nor E has joining dates in January. H’s joining date is not in August
- Only two people sit between E and the person whose joining date is in July.
- The person whose joining date is in February sits on the immediate left of D.
- Only one person sits between E and B.
- C joins before July.
- E joins after April.
- G joins after A.
From the above information, we can infer that:
- G cannot sit at the first two places from the left and the last two places from the right.
- The person who joins in May cannot sit at the first two places from the left and the last three places from the right.
- The person who joins in August cannot sit at the first three places from the left and the last two places from the right.
- H cannot sit at the first two places from the left and the last three places from the right.
- The person who joins in January cannot sit at the first three places from the left and the last two places from the right.
- E cannot sit at the first place from the left and the last two places from the right.
- The person who joins in July cannot sit at the first two places from the left and the last place from the right.
- D cannot sit at the first place from the left.
- B cannot sit at the first place from the left and the last place from the right.
- C cannot join in July or August.
- E cannot join in January, May, or April.
- G cannot join in May or August.
By arranging all the information, we get the following sequence:
- 1st position: A (June)
- 2nd position: E (March)
- 3rd position: B (February)
- 4th position: D (July)
- 5th position: Person who joins in May (C)
- 6th position: G (January)
- 7th position: Person who joins in August (F)
- 8th position: H (April)
So, there are two people sitting between C and the person whose joining date is April. Therefore, the answer is (b) Two.
