Directions: Read the following information and answer the question that follows.

Six swimmers A, B, C, D, E and F compete in a race. The outcome is as follows:

i. B does not win. ii. Only two swimmers separate E and D. iii. A is behind D and E. iv. B is ahead of E, with one swimmer intervening. v. F is ahead of D.

Who stood fifth in the race?

From the conditions: F is ahead of D, A is behind D and E, and B is ahead of E with one swimmer intervening. Also, only two swimmers separate E and D. Let's determine positions: If F is first, and D and E have exactly two swimmers between them, we need to place them. A is behind both D and E. B is ahead of E with one swimmer between B and E. The ordering that fits: F(1), D(2), C(3), E(4), B(5), A(6). This satisfies: B doesn't win, E and D have two swimmers between them (C), A is behind D and E, B is ahead of E with one swimmer (C) intervening, F is ahead of D. B finishes fifth.
