Circular Seating Arrangement Logic
We need to find the seating arrangement of five friends around a circular table based on the given clues to determine who sits to the immediate right of Aditya.
Deducing the Seating Order
Let's denote the friends by their first letters: Arjun (A), Harman (H), Hardik (HD), Aditya (AD), Reyansh (R). The friends are facing the center.
- Clue 1: Arjun is to the right of Harman. This means if we move clockwise, the order is Harman -> Arjun (H -> A).
- Clue 3: Harman is to the right of Reyansh. Clockwise order: Reyansh -> Harman (R -> H).
- Combining Clues 1 & 3: Reyansh -> Harman -> Arjun (R -> H -> A).
- Clue 2: Hardik is to the right of Arjun. Clockwise order: R -> H -> A -> Hardik (R -> H -> A -> HD).
- Final Placement: Since there are five friends, the sequence must be circular. The order is Reyansh -> Harman -> Arjun -> Hardik -> Aditya (R -> H -> A -> HD -> AD). Let's check the second part of Clue 2: Hardik is to the left of Aditya. In our clockwise arrangement (R -> H -> A -> HD -> AD), Aditya is indeed immediately to the right of Hardik, meaning Hardik is immediately to the left of Aditya. This confirms the arrangement.
Determining Who is Right of Aditya
The final clockwise seating arrangement is: Reyansh -> Harman -> Arjun -> Hardik -> Aditya.
The question asks who is sitting to the immediate right of Aditya.
In the circular arrangement, the person immediately clockwise to Aditya is Reyansh.
