Concept:In a circular seating arrangement, “immediate left” means anticlockwise neighbor and “immediate right” means clockwise neighbor when facing the center. Use given relative positions to fix all places.
Explanation:Place M as a reference. R is immediate left of M → R sits anticlockwise next to M.
K is second to the right of M. The first right of M is the person exactly between M and K, which is T. So clockwise order from M: M, then T, then K.
Thus clockwise sequence so far: M → T → K. Anticlockwise from M we have R.
The circle has six seats. Remaining two seats: one clockwise after K, and one anticlockwise after R (i.e., between R and M? Actually R is already anticlockwise neighbor; the empty positions are: after K clockwise, and after R anticlockwise (which is the seat before M clockwise). Let’s label positions clockwise: 1=M, 2=T, 3=K, 4=?, 5=?, 6=R.
P cannot sit next to K or M. Next to K are positions 2 and 4. Next to M are positions 2 and 6. So P cannot be at 2,4,6. The only remaining free position is 5. Hence P is at position 5. Y takes position 4.
Opposite positions in a 6‑person circle are 3 steps apart. Position 5 opposite is position 2, which is T.
Answer:T (Option D)
