Among A, B, C, D and E, who is in the middle while standing in a row ?

Statements:

1. C, who is third to the left of D, is to the immediate right of A and second to the left of E.

2. C is second to the left of E, who is not at any of the ends and who is third to the right of A. D is at one of the ends.

  • A.1 alone is sufficient while 2 alone is not sufficient
  • B.2 alone is sufficient while 1 alone is not sufficient
  • C.Either 1 or 2 is sufficient
  • D.Neither 1 or 2 is sufficient

Answer: D

Correct answer: Neither 1 or 2 is sufficient

Statement 1 is self-contradictory in a row of five: C cannot be both third to the left of D and second to the left of E while also immediately right of A. Statement 2 is similarly inconsistent with D at an end. Neither yields a workable arrangement, so neither determines who stands in the middle.
