Find the odd one out ........

Logical Reasoning(IBPS RRB PO) Sitting Arrangement

Direction: Read the given information and answer the following questions:

Eight persons namely A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H are sitting around a circular table, some of them facing outside and some of them facing inside the circular table. Note: No two-person facing the same direction sits together.

A sits second to the right of B who is an immediate neighbor of C. D is an immediate neighbor of E who sits opposite to B. H does not face outside the circle. D is neither an immediate neighbor of A nor sits opposite C.

The number of persons sitting between C and G is one less than the number of persons sitting between F and C when counted from the right and left of C respectively. C is not immediate neighbour F.

Explanation:

Let's break down the clues and options:

- A sits second to the right of B, who is a neighbor of C.

- D is a neighbor of E, who sits opposite B.

- H does not face outside.

- No two facing the same direction can sit together.

- D is neither neighbor of A nor opposite C.

- Persons between C & G is one less than between F & C (counted right and left of C).

- C not immediate neighbor of F.

Let’s examine the *odd one out*:

# Options:

- G: In most arrangements, G matches the pattern of inside/outside and neighbor clues.

- C: C is central in many rules, but isn't violating any pattern itself.

- B: B fits all clues given, no contradiction.

- E: E's placement is defined relative to B and D with no contradictions.

- A: A's seat is strictly fixed by B's, fits the chain.

?? The correct answer is Option: 1, G

G is the odd one out due to their relative seat count compared to F & C (the number differences specified in the clue about seating order with C, G, F can't consistently be fixed like the others). All other members have a fixed, clear place, but G's position with respect to C and F, and the odd-numbered separation, singles G out.
