Explanation:

Let’s break it down:

- There are 10 friends, two rows (Row 1 faces north, Row 2 faces south), 5 in each.

- D is exactly opposite G; G is third right of J.

- D’s immediate left is I, who faces south.

- I sits third left of C, who is exactly opposite E.

- H is between J and F, and H is opposite B.

Let’s map this out for clarity:

Row 1 (north, left to right):

Let's suppose: F - J - H - G - C

Why? H is between J and F, G is third to right of J (so G goes in 4th slot), C at right end.

Row 2 (south, left to right):

D - I - B - E - A

Why? D left of I, I is third left of C (so starts from left). H is opposite B.

Now, who is second to the left of H (Row 1)?

From above, second left of H is J.

So:

- Option 5: J

The correct answer is Option 5 (J)—not E. J is sitting second to the left of H.
