  • CHDF
    • Explanation: Given conditions: D is to the immediate left of F and second to the right of C: This gives us the relative order: C D F. A is second to the right of E, who is at one of the ends: E must be at either extreme (left or right). So, E A is the pattern. J is the immediate left of D and third to the right of I: From this, we get I J D. Also, J is to the immediate left of D. H is to the left of D and third to the right of I: So, the positions of I H D are set. Combining all information: From these conditions, the sequence we get is: E, K, A, J, B, I, G, C, H, D, F. Now, let’s answer the question: The question asks, which group of friends is sitting to the right of G. From the final seating arrangement E, K, A, J, B, I, G, C, H, D, F, we see that C, H, D, F are sitting immediately to the right of G. So, the correct answer is: (A) CHDF.
