28 Linear Arrangement
Example 1. Six friends A, B, C, D, E and F are sitting in a row facing towards North. C is sitting between A and E. D
is not at the end. B is sitting immediate right to E. F is not at the right end.
Q1. Who is on the extreme right? (SSC)
(a) B (b) E (c) F
(d) G (e) none of these
Q2. Who is exactly in between F and A?
(a) A (b) C (c) E
(d) D (e) none of these

Solution: B is to the immediate right of E i.e E, B. C is between A and E i.e A, C, E, B. as, D is not at the ends and f
is not inn right end, so sequence in the row becomes:

N

F D A C E B

1. So, extreme right is B, option (a)
2. So, exactly in between F and A, is D , option (d).
Example 2. A,B,C,D,E,F and G are sitting on a wall and all of them are facing east. C is on the immediate right of D.
B is at an extreme end and has E as his neighbour. G is between E and F. D is sitting third from the south end.
(CPO)

Q.3. Who is sitting to the right of E?
(a) A (b) C (c) D
(d) F (e) none of these
Q.4. Which of the following pairs are sitting at the extreme ends?
(a) AB (b) AE (c) CB
(d) FB (e) cannot be determine
Solution: The arrangement is :
