(2) Miss B sits right to the barber.
(3) The washerman is on the left of the tailor.
(4) Miss D sits opposite Mr. C.
What are the trades of A and B ?
Answer: B
Clealry, C and D sit opposite to each other. So, if A sits opposite to cook, B shall be the cook.
Now, B is to the right of barber. So, one of the rest, say C will be barber.
