Notice that we have 12 people evenly distributed in a round table (360°).

This way, each person would be


(360)/(12)=30

30° from each other.

After the two passes, the soup would have moved 120°, meaning that


(120)/(30)=4

It would have moved 4 places.

Now, the person sitting 4 places away from Lacy, if the soup is passed counterclockwise, is Haifa

Therefore, the soup would be in front of Haifa.
