A, B, C, D and E are seated around a circular table facing the centre. D is…

To determine who is sitting on the immediate left of B, let's break down the seating arrangement step-by-step.

Step-by-Step Analysis
Understand the positions: There are 5 people (A, B, C, D, E) around a circular table facing the center.

Place the first clue: "D is between A and E." This means the sequence could be A-D-E or E-D-A.

Place the second clue: "C is between B and E in clockwise direction."

Let's arrange them clockwise: B -> C -> E.

Since we know D is between A and E, and we have placed E, the sequence clockwise must continue: E -> D -> A.

Combine the sequences:

Putting it all together in clockwise order: B -> C -> E -> D -> A.

Now, check the positions:

D is between A and E (Yes: A-D-E clockwise).

C is between B and E in clockwise direction (Yes: B-C-E clockwise).

Finding the Immediate Left of B
Since everyone is facing the center, clockwise movement corresponds to moving to the left of a person.

In the sequence B -> C -> E -> D -> A (clockwise):

C is to the immediate left of B.

E is to the immediate left of C.

D is to the immediate left of E.

A is to the immediate left of D.

B is to the immediate left of A.

Therefore, C is on the immediate left of B. This corresponds to Option 1.
