Five people A, B, C, D, and E are seated about a round table. Every chair is spaced equidistant from adjacent chairs. C is seated next to A; A is seated two seats from D; and B is not seated next to A. Which of the following must be true?  (I) D is seated next to B (II) E is seated next to A Correct Answer (I) and (II) both

Five people A, B, C, D, and E are seated around the round table.

Every chair is spaced equidistant from adjacent chairs.

C is seated next to A

A is seated two seats from D;

B is not seated next to A

(I) D is seated next to B (True, D is two seats from A and B can't sit next to A, So D must be seated next to B.)

(II) E is seated next to A (True, among B, C, D, and E, B and D can't sit next to A. Hence only C and E will be next to A)

Hence, both I and II are true.
