Solution
Given information:
- Six friends A, B, C, D, E, F sitting in a row facing East
- E and F are in the center
- A and B are at the ends
- C is sitting on the left of A
Since A and B are at the ends, they occupy positions 1 and 6.
Since C is sitting on the left of A, A cannot be at position 1 (leftmost).
Therefore: A is at position 6 and B is at position 1.
E and F are in the center, so they occupy positions 3 and 4.
The remaining friends C and D must occupy positions 2 and 5.
Testing the arrangement: B, D, E, F, C, A (positions 1 to 6)
This satisfies all constraints:
- A and B at ends ✓
- E and F in center ✓
- C (position 5) is left of A (position 6) ✓
Matching List-I with List-II:
(A) How many people are there to the right of D?
D is at position 2. To the right: E, F, C, A = 4 people
Answer: (III) Four
(B) Who is sitting on the right of B?
B is at position 1. Immediately right is position 2 = D
Answer: (II) D
(C) Who is immediate left of C?
C is at position 5. Immediate left is position 4 = F
Answer: (I) F
(D) How many people are there to the left of E?
E is at position 3. To the left: B, D = 2 people
Answer: (IV) Two
The correct matching is: (A) - (III), (B) - (II), (C) - (I), (D) - (IV)
Therefore, the answer is Option 2.
