Six people sit in two rows of three, facing each other. If A sits in the first row and faces B, then B
Correct answer: A. sits in the second row directly opposite A
- A. sits in the second row directly opposite A
- B. sits beside A
- C. sits in the first row
- D. cannot be seated
Explanation
In a facing arrangement each person in one row looks directly at exactly one person in the other, so facing means directly opposite. The rows face in opposite directions, which means left and right are reversed between them. Sketching two parallel lines with arrows for the facing direction keeps this straight.

About Seating Arrangements
Seating arrangement problems place people or objects in a line, circle, row or multiple rows according to positional clues. They require handling adjacency, left and right, facing directions, opposite seats, fixed positions and relative order, with circular arrangements differing because rotation does not create a new arrangement.
