Explanation: 1) F sits second to the right of G; only 3 people sit between F and J. 2) Only 1 person sits between J and I (either from left or right). 3) D sits second to the left of K. 4) K is neither an immediate neighbour of I nor J. 5) Only 3 people sit between D and E. 6) E does not sit at any of the corners of the table. (Case 1 will be eliminated here.) (The vacant place will be occupied by H.) 1) G is facing inside → false. 2) H is an immediate neighbour of J → true. 3) F is sitting to the immediate left of K → true. Hence, both 2 and 3 are true.

Answer: E. Both two and three
