Answer

Solution:
Given information:
A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H are sitting around a square table facing the centre in such a way that four of them sit at four corners of the square while four sit in the middle of each of the flour sides.
(a) A sits second to right of F. F sits in the middle of one of the sides of the table
(b) G who does not sit at any of the corners of the table sits second to the right of D
(c) Only two people sit between D and B (taken from one side)
(d) C is not an immediate neighbour of G
(e) H is sits second to left of B
(f) E is not an immediate neighbour of G or F

To find: Who sits exactly between F and A?

Explanation:

From point (a), we can conclude that:
- F is to the immediate left of A.

From point (b), we can conclude that:
- D sits at one of the corners of the table and G is in the middle of one of the sides.

From point (c), we can conclude that:
- D and B are opposite to each other, and there are exactly two people between them taken from one side. So, D and B sit at the corners of the table.

From point (d), we can conclude that:
- C does not sit at any of the corners of the table.

From point (e), we can conclude that:
- B sits to the immediate left of H.

From point (f), we can conclude that:
- E does not sit at any of the corners of the table and is not an immediate neighbour of G or F.

Now, let's arrange the given information in a table format for better understanding:

| Position | Person |
| -------- | ------ |
| Corner | D |
| Corner | |
| Middle | F |
| Corner | |
| Middle | |
| | |
| Corner | B |
| Corner | |

From the above table, we can infer that:
- A and H sit at the corners of the table opposite to each other.
- G and C sit in the middle of the sides opposite to each other.
- F sits in the middle of one of the sides of the table.
- D and B sit at the corners of the table opposite to each other.

So, the person who sits exactly between F and A is B.

Hence, the correct option is (b) B
