Direction: Study the following information carefully and answer the given questions.
An uncertain number of people are sitting in a row facing north and are at an equal distance between them. The number of people sitting to the left of A is the same as to the right of H. G is sitting third to the right of D, who is sitting immediate right of A. The number of people sitting between I and F is the same number of people sitting between F and B. H is sitting four places away from E, who is not an immediate neighbour of C. Only one person is sitting between D and I, who is sitting fourth from the left end. C is sitting exactly between F and B, who is sitting immediate left of H. Two people are sitting between G and F.
Who among the following is sitting third to the left of the one who is sitting six places away from D?

None of these
Incorrect AnswerExplanation:
- Designate the total number of people as 'n'. Let us consider arranging the positions based on the conditions given.
- D is right of A, with G third to the right of D.
- Two positions from I to F ensure symmetry for F and B with C between them.
- H is to the right of A, with the same number of people sitting to the right of H.
- E is related to H by being four places away but is not next to C.
- Use these to construct the full arrangement.
- Evaluate the criteria for finding who is third to the left of the person six places from D.
Given this setup, option 4: G is third to the left of this person.
Your previous deductions about the answer being G are consistent with the relational positioning.
