Six persons Dev, Eshan, Farida, Gopal, Hema and Irfan sit in a row facing north. Dev sits third from the left end. Hema sits immediately to the right of Dev. Eshan sits at the extreme right end. Gopal sits between Hema and Eshan. Irfan does not sit at either end of the row. Who sits immediately to the left of Dev?
Irfan sits immediately to the left of Dev. The row is Farida, Irfan, Dev, Hema, Gopal, Eshan. Positions 3 to 6 are fixed by the clues, and since Irfan cannot be at an end, he takes position 2 and Farida takes position 1.

- CGopal
- DHema
Explanation
Dev is in position 3 and Hema in position 4. Eshan is in position 6 and Gopal in position 5. Positions 1 and 2 remain for Farida and Irfan. Irfan is not at an end, so he takes position 2 and Farida takes position 1. The order is Farida, Irfan, Dev, Hema, Gopal, Eshan, so Irfan is immediately left of Dev.
