According to the question.
E is at the leftmost corner out of the 5 seats.
Now, 4 seats are left.
C is 2nd from the right.
Now it is given that a is sitting next to c and b
Therefore it means it cannot sit on rightmost seat.
Therefore it is sitting to left of c
Now since it is sitting to right of b and next to c -
Hence a is on the 3 Rd position and b is on the 2 new position.
Only one seat is left now and therefore d is on the rightmost seat.

If the direction is not mention in the question we take always they are facing NORTH side.
C is next to D means either left are right.
So, the order is E B D C A.
C is next to D means either left are right.
So, the order is E B D C A.

1. A is sitting next to B. so,
A B
2. C is sitting next to D. so,
C D
3. D is not sitting with E, who is on the left end of the bench. so,
E _ _ _ _
4. C is on the second position from the right. so,
E _ _ C _
5. A is to the right of B and E. A and C are sitting together.
E B A C D
Because A should be placed to the left of C so that it will be right of E. Also it should be to the right of B, so place B next to E. Now A and C will be sitting together. The only place left will be towards the right end, there you place D.
6. So, A is sitting between B and C.
