Logical Reasoning(IBPS RRB CL) Blood Relation

Directions: Study the following information and answer the given questions.

Seven friends A, B, C, D, E, F and G are sitting around a circular table facing the center but not necessarily in the same order. A is neighbor of B and C. D is not neighbor of C or E. G, who is second to the left of D, is the neighbor of E and F.

Explanation:

Let’s break down the key points:

- Seven friends: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, all facing the center.

- A is neighbored by B and C. So A is between B and C, could be either way.

- D is not next to C or E. So D’s neighbors are neither C nor E.

- G is second to the left of D. So if you start from D and count two seats to the left (around the circle), you hit G.

- G is also the neighbor of E and F. So E and F sit on either side of G.

Step by step:

- Place G second to the left of D. That fixes their relative positions.

- G’s neighbors are E and F—the only options for G are with E and F on each side.

- D is not by C or E.

Now, map out possible arrangements. You’ll land with A’s neighbors as B and C, and A sits such that the person second left from A is G. If you try to put D on A’s left, it contradicts earlier points.

Let’s check the options:

1. G—No, already near E and F.

2. B—No, B is A’s immediate neighbor.

3. C—Nope, same as B.

4. D—Yes, D is second to A’s left in the logical layout.

5. E—No, E sits next to G.

So, the correct answer is Option 4: D.
