Nine football fans are watching a match in a stadium. Seated in one row, they are A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H and I (not necessarily in the same order). C is at the right of D and at third place at the right of E. B is at one end of the row. H is seated adjacent to both F and G. F is at the third place at the left of B. A is right next to left of F.
Who is the sitting at the center of row?

Who is the sitting at the center of row?
Solution
Number the seats 1 to 9 and place B at seat 9. F is three places to B's left, so F is at 6, and A sits immediately left of F at 5.
H must touch both F and G, so H is at 7 and G at 8. Seats 1 to 4 hold C, D, E and I, with E at 1 and C at 4.
The centre seat, 5, is A.
