Question

Two ladies and two men are playing Bridge, a card game and seated at North, East, South and West of a table. No lady is facing East. Persons sitting opposite to each other are not of the same sex. One man is facing South. Which directions are the ladies facing?

• A. East and West
• B. South and East
• C. North and West
• D. North and East

Answer 1

The correct option is C North and West

As no lady faces east, the two ladies can be sitting on remaining sides except west.

However, it is given that people of the same sex are not facing each other, therefore we can tell that one lady is on east and remaining either north or south.
Also, one man is facing south.

Hence, we can tell that lady is on the south facing north, whereas one more lady is on the east facing west.
