• A. Between B and C
• B. Between B and D
• C. Between E and D
• D. Between C and E

Hint:

Carefully consider all seating constraints to determine the correct arrangement.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

To determine A's position:
1. E is on the left end of the bench.
2. C is on the second position from the right.
3. A and C are sitting together.
4. A is to the right of B and E.
5. A is sitting next to B.
Given these conditions, the only arrangement that satisfies all the constraints is:
- E is on the left end.
- C is second from the right.
- A must be between B and C to satisfy all conditions.
Therefore, the correct answer is (1) Between B and C.
