B. F and H are the immediate neighbours of A and face outside.
II. Eight friends are sitting around a circular table such that friends sitting alternately are facing in the same direction (away from the center or towards the center). A, B, G and E face towards the center and C, D, F, H face away from the center.

Q: Answer-Who sits second the left of A? I. Eight friends are sitting around a circular table four facing tow...

From 1, we know that, people sitting adjacent to each other face in opposite directions. Thus, if neighbours of A face outside, A faces inside. Also, A sits second to the left of G thus G also faces inside and by placing B such that G sits fourth to the right of B, we get the following arrangement. From II, we know that A, B, G and E face towards the center and C, D, F, H face away from the center, but do not know their placements and position.

A If the data in statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question.

B If the data in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question.

C If the data either in statement I alone or in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.

D If the data even in both the statement I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question
