The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

  • U and H are immediate neighbours of M.
  • E is the only person sitting between K and S.
  • H is to the immediate right of S.

From the last two statements, we can deduce the sequence S, H. Since U and H are neighbours of M, M must be to the left of H. Therefore, we have the sequence S, H, M.

Since U is also a neighbour of M, U must be to the left of M. So we have U, M, H, S.

E is the only person sitting between K and S. This means the sequence is K, E, S. Therefore, the arrangement must be U, M, H, S, E, K (in clockwise order, or reverse).

So, the full arrangement is: U - M - H - S - E - K (clockwise)

We want to find who is to the immediate right of U. Following the clockwise order, it is M.
