Occlusion Question.

[ASB]

In an ideal intercuspal position, the facial cusp tips of permanent maxillary premolars oppose.
The facial embrasure between their class counterpart and the tooth mesial to it.
The facial embrasure between their class counterpart and the tooth distal to it.

I think answer is mesial to it.

Dental decks says, distal to it.

Can any one tell me how?
