Which of the following pairs has the first person on the immediate left of the second person?
Answer: D
Correct answer: HD
Facing the centre, each friend’s left is the next seat clockwise and their right the next seat anticlockwise. Fix B; G takes the seat on B’s right, E sits three to G’s left, and A three to B’s right. Of the two ways to place F with H two seats to F’s right, only one keeps F away from E; and of the last two seats, D must take the one that does not touch B. Clockwise the circle reads B → C → E → D → H → A → F → G.
To sit on someone’s immediate left is to occupy the next seat clockwise from them. H occupies exactly that seat with respect to D. In the other pairs the first person sits on the second’s right, or nowhere near.
