Five knights stand in a circle facing inward. Each knight has a distinct color shield: Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, and Silver. The Red knight is directly opposite the Blue knight. The Green knight is to the immediate right of the Red knight. The Yellow knight is not adjacent to the Blue knight. Where does the Silver knight stand?
Between the Blue and Yellow knights.
With Red and Blue opposite, and Green to Red's right, Green is between Red and Blue on one side. This leaves two open spots between Blue and Red on the other side. Since Yellow cannot be adjacent to Blue, Yellow must be separated from Blue by Silver.
