Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Answer: Between B and C
Reasoning:
E is on the left end (position 1).
C is second from the right, so in a five-person row C is position 4.
C sits next to D and D is not next to E, so D must be at the right end (position 5).
A and C sit together, so A must be position 3 (next to C at position 4).
A is to the right of B and E, so B must be position 2 (to A's left).
Final seating from left to right: E, B, A, C, D. Therefore A is seated between B and C.
