The plan of an office block for six officers A, B, C, D, E and F is as follows : Both B and C occupy offices to the right of the corridor (as one enters the office block) and A occupies on the left of the corridor. E and F occupy offices on opposite sides of the corridor but their offices do not face each other. The offices of C and D face each other. E does not have a corner office. F's office is further down the corridor than A's, but on the same side.

If E sits in his office and faces the corridor, whose office is to his left?

Correct Option: C

Let us organize the corridor layout with three positions on each side (Position 1: Entrance, Position 2: Middle, Position 3: Far End). Left side has A, D, F and Right side has B, C, E. 1. A is on the Left. B and C are on the Right. 2. C and D face each other. 3. E is on the Right and not in a corner, so E must be in the Middle (Position 2 Right). 4. F is further down than A on the same side (Left). Since E and F do not face each other, and E is at Position 2, F cannot be at Position 2. Thus, F must be at Position 3 (Far End Left), which means A must be at Position 2 (Middle Left). 5. Since A is at Position 2, D must be at Position 1 (Entrance Left). 6. Since D is at Position 1, C (facing D) is at Position 1 (Entrance Right). This leaves B at Position 3 (Far End Right). Layout summary: Left: Pos 1 (D), Pos 2 (A), Pos 3 (F) Right: Pos 1 (C), Pos 2 (E), Pos 3 (B) E is at Pos 2 Right. When E sits in his office facing the corridor (looking West), his left hand points towards the entrance (South), where Position 1 is. The office at Position 1 on his side is occupied by C. Therefore, Option C is the correct answer.
