Answer / guest

Number 3 is face down on the table.

If Abu can see two even numbers i.e. number 2 twice, and if
Dabu can see number 2 twice, then number 2 must be facing up.

Now everything else is simple. (see the following diagram)

Dabu Abu

1

3 2 2

1

Calu Babu

Thus, the number hidden from the view is number 3 and hence
the answer.
