Six friends Alex, Brad, Charlie, David, Eric, and Frank are sitting around a circular table facing away from the center. Alex is sitting to the immediate right of Brad. Frank sits exactly between Charlie and David. Charlie sits to the immediate right of Eric. Who sits to the immediate right of David?
To solve this problem, we need to arrange the six friends: Alex, Brad, Charlie, David, Eric, and Frank around a circular table following the given conditions.
- Since Alex is sitting to the immediate right of Brad, we place Alex next to Brad in a clockwise direction.
- Charlie sits to the immediate right of Eric, so we place Charlie next to Eric in a clockwise direction.
- Frank sits exactly between Charlie and David, so Frank must be positioned between Charlie and David.
Let's summarize in detail:
- Position Brad and Alex such that Alex is to the immediate right of Brad.
- Now, we position Eric and Charlie such that Charlie is to the immediate right of Eric.
- We place Frank exactly between Charlie and David. This means if we move clockwise from Charlie or counter-clockwise from David, we encounter Frank first.
With these placements, the table arrangement can be visualized as follows:
| Position | 1 (Brad) | 2 (Alex) | 3 (Eric) | 4 (Charlie) | 5 (Frank) | 6 (David) |
In this arrangement, who sits to the immediate right of David?
Position 1 is Brad, who is immediately to the right of David when considering the circular setup, as they are facing away from the center.
Thus, the person sitting to the immediate right of David is Brad.
Important Questions from Seating arrangement
Five people A, B, C, D and E are seated about a round table. Every chair is spaced equidistant from adjacent chairs.

Select the correct answer using the code given below:
There are seven persons up on a ladder, A, B, C, D, E, F and G (not in that order). A is further up than E but is lower than C. B is in the middle. G is between A and B. E is between B and F. If F is between E and D, the person on the bottom step of the ladder will be
Consider that:
1. A is taller than B.
2. C is taller than A.
3. D is taller than C.
4. E is the tallest of all.
If they are made to sit in the above order of their height, who will occupy the mid position?
Four children are sitting in a row. A is occupying the seat next to B but not next to C. If C is not sitting next to D, who is/are occupying seat/seats adjacent to D?
A question paper must have a question on one of the eight poets: A, B, C, D, E, F, G or H The first four belong to the medieval period while the rest are considered modern poets Generally, modern poets figure in the question paper in alternate years. Generally those who like H like G also; and those who like F like E also. The paper-setter does not like to ask about F as he has written a book on F, but he likes F. Last year, the paper contained a question on A.
On the basis of the information given, this year's paper is most likely to contain a question on
