Six friends, Aditi, Bharat, Chitra, Dev, Isha and Farhan, are sitting around a circular table, facing the centre (not necessarily in the same order). Dev is second to the left of Aditi. Chitra is second to the right of Aditi. Bharat is to the immediate left of Chitra. Farhan is to the immediate left of Dev.
Who is sitting to the immediate right of Aditi?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → Bharat
Facing the centre, a person’s left is the next seat clockwise and the right is the next seat anticlockwise. Number the seats 1 to 6 clockwise.
Put Aditi in seat 1. Dev is second to her left: Dev in seat 3
Chitra is second to the right of Aditi, two seats anticlockwise: Chitra in seat 5
Bharat is to the immediate left of Chitra: Bharat in seat 6; Farhan is to the immediate left of Dev: Farhan in seat 4
Isha takes the last seat, seat 2
Aditi’s immediate right is the seat just anticlockwise of seat 1, seat 6: Bharat
