Both 1 and 2 are sufficient to answer the given question.
Neither 1 or 2 is sufficient to answer the given question.
1 alone is sufficient while 2 alone is not sufficient to answer the given question.
2 alone is sufficient while 1 alone is not sufficient to answer the given question.

Answer 1

Statement 1: D is sitting between A and F.

Thus, there is no information given about A and B. So, we can not find who is sitting next to B? Statement 1 is not sufficient to give the answer.

Statement 2: C is sitting between B and F.

Thus, there is no required information given about B. So, we can not find who is sitting next to B? Statement 2 is not sufficient to give the answer.

From statement 1 and 2, we get:

Case 1:

Case 2:

From both the cases, we can see C and A are sitting next to B.

Clearly, both 1 and 2 are sufficient to answer the given question.

Hence, 'option 1' is the correct answer.
