A, B, C, D, E are seated facing north in a row. A is between B and C. D is at the right end. B is at the left end. Who is in the middle?
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D.
1. B at left end, D at right end. Row: B, _, _, _, D.
2. A between B and C — A is adjacent to B. Position 2 = A.
3. C adjacent to A on the other side: position 3 = C. E fills position 4. Row: B, A, C, E, D.
4. Wait, A between B and C means C also adjacent to A. So C in position 3. Middle = position 3 = C? Re-check: if "A between B and C" is order B-A-C, middle of 5 = position 3 = C. Selecting B (C) accordingly.
5. Re-reading: "in the middle" of a row of 5 is position 3. With B-A-C-E-D order, middle = C. Answer B.
