Directions: Read the given information carefully and answer the questions given below:

Seven individuals — A, B, C, D, E, F, and G — are seated around a circular table facing the centre. Each person hails from a different city: Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, and Patna, though not necessarily in that order.

G sits third to the left of B, who is from Delhi. G belongs to Chennai. D, who is from Patna, sits third to the left of G. A, who is from Hyderabad, sits second to the right of D. E sits to the immediate left of A. The person from Bengaluru sits to the immediate left of A. F sits to the immediate left of B. The person from Mumbai is an immediate neighbour of C.

Who sits fourth to the right of the person who belongs to Kolkata?

Correct Answer: The one who is from Bengaluru

Step-by-Step Explanation:

We are given that seven individuals — A, B, C, D, E, F, and G — sit around a circular table facing the centre. Since everyone faces the centre, moving to the left corresponds to moving in a clockwise direction, and moving to the right corresponds to moving in a counter-clockwise direction.

Let us number the 7 positions around the circle sequentially from 1 to 7 in a clockwise direction:

1. Positioning B and G:
Place B at Position 1. B is from Delhi.
G sits 3rd to the left (clockwise) of B: Position 1 ⇒ 2 ⇒ 3 ⇒ 4. So, G is at Position 4 and is from Chennai.

2. Positioning D and A:
D sits 3rd to the left (clockwise) of G (Position 4): Position 4 ⇒ 5 ⇒ 6 ⇒ 7. So, D is at Position 7 and is from Patna.
A sits 2nd to the right (counter-clockwise) of D (Position 7): Position 7 ⇒ 6 ⇒ 5. So, A is at Position 5 and is from Hyderabad.

3. Positioning E and identifying the person from Bengaluru:
E sits to the immediate left (clockwise) of A (Position 5), which is Position 6. We are also told that the person from Bengaluru sits to the immediate left of A. Therefore, E is at Position 6 and hails from Bengaluru.

4. Positioning F and C:
F sits to the immediate left (clockwise) of B (Position 1), placing F at Position 2.
The only vacant seat remaining for a person is Position 3, which must be occupied by C.

5. Assigning Mumbai and Kolkata:
The person from Mumbai is an immediate neighbour of C (Position 3). The neighbours of C are Position 2 (F) and Position 4 (G from Chennai). Since G is from Chennai, F must be from Mumbai.
The remaining unassigned city is Kolkata, which belongs to C at Position 3.

Complete Seating Arrangement (Clockwise from 1 to 7):
• Position 1: B (Delhi)
• Position 2: F (Mumbai)
• Position 3: C (Kolkata)
• Position 4: G (Chennai)
• Position 5: A (Hyderabad)
• Position 6: E (Bengaluru)
• Position 7: D (Patna)

Finding the Answer:
The question asks: Who sits fourth to the right of the person who belongs to Kolkata?
The person from Kolkata is C at Position 3. Moving 4 positions to the right (counter-clockwise) from Position 3:
• 1st to the right = Position 2 (F)
• 2nd to the right = Position 1 (B)
• 3rd to the right = Position 7 (D)
• 4th to the right = Position 6 (E, who belongs to Bengaluru)

Thus, the person who sits fourth to the right of the person from Kolkata is the one who is from Bengaluru.
