Answer 1

Eight Boys: A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H;

i) Two boys are sitting on each side.

ii) D is second to the right of A.

iii) H and D sit on the opposite sides.

iv) H is either third to the left of D or third to the right of D.

Case 1:

Case 2:

v) A and B are sitting on the same side.

vi) E is not the neighbour of H or D.

This eliminates Case 2.

vii) F is not the neighbour of E and H.

Here, C and G are neighbours of E.

Hence, C and G is the correct answer.
