Seven friends, Anmol, Bhawna, Komal, Diksha, Ekta, Falak and Gopi, are sitting in a row facing north (but not necessarily in the same order). Falak is sitting to the immediate right of Ekta. Ekta is sitting fourth of the right to Gopi. Komal is an immediate neighbour of Bhawna and Diksha. The person who is sitting third to the left of Diksha is at one of the extreme ends. Who among the following is an immediate neighbour of Gopi and Komal?
Bhawna
Let seven seats be numbered 1 to 7 from the left end.
Since Ekta is fourth to the right of Gopi and Falak is immediately to the right of Ekta, testing possible positions shows the only arrangement consistent with all conditions is Gopi at seat 1, Bhawna at seat 2, Komal at seat 3, Diksha at seat 4, Ekta at seat 5 and Falak at seat 6, leaving Anmol at seat 7.
This placement satisfies that Komal (seat 3) is the immediate neighbour of both Bhawna (seat 2) and Diksha (seat 4), and that the person third to the left of Diksha, namely Gopi at seat 1, sits at an extreme end.
Gopi, being at the extreme end, has only one neighbour, Bhawna at seat 2, and Bhawna is also one of Komal's two neighbours.
Hence Bhawna is the common immediate neighbour of both Gopi and Komal.
