B is not standing behind A.3. C is standing between E and A which is the middle of the line.In the given scenario, who is standing in the second position from the front?
Solution
To solve this problem, we need to consider all the given conditions and try to place each person in the line accordingly.
-
E is not standing at the fourth position from the front. This means E can be in positions 1, 2, 3, or 5.
-
B is not standing behind A. This means B can be in positions 1, 2, 3, or 4, but not 5 because A cannot be behind B.
-
C is standing between E and A which is the middle of the line. This means C is in position 3, with E and A on either side in positions 2 and 4.
Given these conditions, the only possible arrangement is: B, E, C, A, D.
So, the person standing in the second position from the front is E.
