Explanation:
We first of all mark the seven blank positions around a circle.
Now, G is second to the left of C and C is to the immediate left of F. We mark their positions as shown below.
Also, B is between D and E. Thus, D, B, E sit together and occupy the three consecutive blank positions. Now, only one position remains blank between G and C, and this must be occupied by A. Now, D, B, E may its in any of the positions (D, B, E) or (E, B, D). But A is third to the left of E only when they its in the order (D, B, E). Thus, we mark their positions as shown.
(i) fourth to the right of D
(ii) to the immediate right of C
(iii) between C and E
(iv) second to the right of A
Hence, the answer is (a).
