    Question

    Read the following information carefully and answer the questions that follow.  Eight girls A, B, C, D, W, X, Y and Z are standing in two concentric circles in such a manner that each member of the inner circle stands exactly opposite to the members of the outer circle. The members standing in the outer circles are W, X, Y and A and all of them are facing towards the centre while the members of the inner circle are Z, B, C, D and they are facing away from the centre. Each of them likes a different Actor viz. E, F, G, H, I, J , K, L but not necessarily in the same order. D likes neither F nor I and faces Y, who likes neither J nor L. The girl who likes K faces the girl who likes E. Z who likes H faces the immediate neighbour of the girl who likes G. Y stands second to the left of A. The girls who like I and E are in separate circles. The girl who likes J stands on the immediate left of A. X who does not like G does not face Z. The girls who like J and L are immediate neighbours and one of them faces B, who likes F. The girls who like K and H stand in the same circle but they are not immediate neighbours of each other.    

    X likes which of the following Actor?

    A J Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B F Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C H Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D L Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E G Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Y stands second to the left of A. The girl who likes J stands on the immediate left of A. D likes neither F nor I and faces Y, who likes neither J nor L. The girls who like J and L are immediate neighbours and one of them faces B, who likes F. Here we get 3 following cases: Case 1:- The girls who like K and H stand in the same circle but they are not immediate neighbours of each other. While D does not like I. so this case is not possible. Case 2:- The girl who likes K faces the girl who likes E. Z who likes H faces the immediate neighbour of the girl who likes G. So this case is also not possible. Case 3:-  The girl who likes K faces the girl who likes E. Z who likes H faces the immediate neighbour of the girl who likes G. X who does not like G does not face Z. This is the final arrangement.
