Solutions :
From the first two statements we get the following figure
Now, C is the immediate neighbour of H. But if we place C on the left of H, B can't be fourth to the right of C as A is already occupying t his place. Hence C is on the immediate right of Hand the figure becomes as follows:
1. 2; B is sitting immediate right of E.
2 . 5; F is third to the left of B.
3. 4; F is third to the right of G.
4. 1; Only E is sitting between A and B.
5. 4; Since B and C are opposite to each other, the answer remains the same from whichever side you count
