Six members sit in one row. E is to the left of B but to the right of A (A < E < B). F is to the right of B but to the left of G (B < F < G), and G is to the left of C (G < C). Which two members occupy the central seats?

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: B F

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
Linking three local inequalities yields a strict left-to-right order for six members; the two central seats follow immediately.



Given Data / Assumptions:

  • A < E < B.
  • B < F < G.
  • G < C.


Concept / Approach:
Combine the chains to get a total order.



Step-by-Step Solution:

Order: A < E < B < F < G < C.Middle seats (positions 3 and 4) are B and F.


Why Other Options Are Wrong:
A and E are left of center; G and C are right of center; F and G are consecutive but not both middle.



Final Answer:
B F
