Harish, Isha, Jatin, Kavita, Lalit, Meera and Nikhil are seated in a row at a Diwali puja, all facing north. Meera sits at the right end. Exactly four people sit between Lalit and Meera. Isha sits immediately to the left of Lalit. Harish sits second to the left of Meera, and Jatin sits immediately to the right of Harish. Nikhil is not a neighbour of Harish. Who sits third to the right of Nikhil?

Question

Accepted Answer

Jatin. Left to right: Isha, Lalit, Nikhil, Kavita, Harish, Jatin, Meera (Meera in seat 7, Lalit four seats away in seat 2, Isha in seat 1, Harish in seat 5, Jatin in seat 6; of seats 3 and 4, Nikhil cannot be next to Harish, so Nikhil 3, Kavita 4). Nikhil is in seat 3; three seats to the right is seat 6, which is Jatin.
