Answer 1

From the given information:

Step 1: Only two people sit to the left of G. Only one person sits to the right of B.

We place G such that there are 2 spots left to its left & place B such that there is 1 spot left to its right.

Step 2: Only two people sit between A and F. A sits to the left of F. D is an immediate neighbour of F to the right.

Now we place A and F such that A is to the left and there are 2 spots between them and then we can place D to the right of F.

Step 3: E is not an immediate neighbour of G.

Now we place C next to G because E cannot be placed there and at last we place E at the only spot left.

From the arrangement, we can see that E sits to the immediate right of B.

Hence the correct answer is option 4).
