Question

Six friends are sitting in a circle and are facing the centre of the circle. Deepa is between Prakash and Pankaj. Priti is between Mukesh and Lalit. Prakash and Mukesh are opposite to each other. Who is sitting opposite to Priti?

• A. Prakash
• B. Pankaj
• C. Deepa
• D. Lalit

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Deepa

Deepa is sitting opposite to Priti. Let's place the 6 friends in a circle facing the center step-by-step: 1. Fix the opposite pair: Place Prakash at the top position. Since Mukesh is directly opposite to him, Mukesh goes to the bottom position. 2. Arrange Deepa and Pankaj: We know Deepa is between Prakash and Pankaj. * Let's place Deepa to the immediate right of Prakash. * This means Pankaj must be placed next to Deepa. 3. Arrange Priti and Lalit: We know Priti is between Mukesh and Lalit. * Since Mukesh is at the bottom, and the right side is already occupied, Priti must be placed to the immediate left of Mukesh. * This leaves the last remaining spot (to the left of Prakash) for Lalit. ## Final Seating Positions (Moving Clockwise): * Top: Prakash * Top-Right: Deepa * Bottom-Right: Pankaj * Bottom: Mukesh * Bottom-Left: Priti * Top-Left: Lalit
