There are two squares i.e. Inner square and outer square and they placed like that inner square is covered by outer square. In each square four persons are sitting at four corners. All the persons whom are sitting in inner square is facing outside and all the persons whom are sitting in outer square is facing inside so all the persons who are sitting in outer square are facing the ones whom are sitting in inner square. The persons are i.e. A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H.
Note: All the persons whom are sitting in inner square bought odd number items and all the persons whom are sitting in outer square bought even number items.
E bought 23 items. H is facing F who bought 13 items less than H. The sum of the number of items bought by A and B together is 28. One person sits between G and H. G is not neighbor of E. The one who faces C is 2nd to the right of B. C bought 14 items. C is not facing E. A bought 3 items less than C. D is immediate left of the one who bought 26 items. H didn’t buy 26 items. H bought 6 more items than G. D bought 1 item less than F.

Explanations
We labeled the corners from 1 to 8. The persons whom are at position of 1 to 4 are facing outside and 5 to 8 are facing inside.
E bought 23 items so E is sitting in inner square then E is sitting at 1st position. H is facing F who bought 13 items less than H. One person sits between G and H. G is not neighbor of E. Now it is confirmed that H and G are in outer square. So H can be sit at 6th, 7th and 8th position.
Case 1: If H is at 6th position :
Then F is at 2nd position and G is at 8th position. C bought 14 items. So C is in outer square. C is not facing E then C is at 7th position.
The one who faces C is 2nd to the right of B. So the one who is at 3rd position is 2nd to the right of B then B must be at 1st position but E is there so this case gets rejected.
Case 2: If H is at 8th position :
Then F is at 4th position and G is at 6th position. C bought 14 items. So C is in outer square. C is not facing E then C is at 7th position.
The one who faces C is 2nd to the right of B. So the one who is at 3rd position is 2nd to the right of B then B must be at 1st position but E is there so this case gets rejected.
Case 3: If H is at 7th position :
Then F is at 3rd position and G is at 5th position. C bought 14 items. So C is in outer square. So C can be at 6th and 8th position.
A bought 3 items less than C. Then A bought 11 items at must be in inner square. The sum of the number of items bought by A and B together is 28 then B bought (28-11)=17 items.
If C at 6th position, then B is at 4th position and D is at 8th position.
D is immediate left of the one who bought 26 items. H didn’t buy 26 items but from this cannot be possible so that is not possible.
If C at 8th position, then B is at 2nd position and D is at 6th position and A is at 4th position. D is immediate left of the one who bought 26 items so G bought 26 items. H bought 6 more items than G then H bought 32 items. F bought 13 items less than H then F bought 19 items. D bought 1 item less than F then D bought 18 items.
Here is the final arrangement:
- Answer: A
