Correct Answer :

Option C

The one who uses an Apple smartphone

Solution :

The correct answer is The one who uses an Apple smartphone.

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Six persons—K, L, M, N, O, and P—are sitting around a circular table facing towards the center. Let us determine their exact positions and smartphone brands step-by-step.

1. Positioning K, N, and the Pixel user:
- K sits opposite N, who uses a Xiaomi smartphone.
- K uses a Samsung smartphone.
- K sits second to the right of the person who uses a Pixel smartphone. Facing center, this means the Pixel user is seated two positions to the left of K.

2. Positioning L and O:
- L sits to the immediate left of K and uses an Apple smartphone.
- O sits opposite L and uses a OnePlus smartphone.

3. Positioning P and M:
- P sits to the immediate right of K.
- With K, L, N, O, and P already placed, the only remaining position (two places to the left of K) must be occupied by M. Therefore, M is the person who uses the Pixel smartphone.

4. Identifying the Vivo user:
- The person who uses a Vivo smartphone sits to the immediate left of O.
- The person to the immediate left of O is P, so P uses the Vivo smartphone.

Complete Circular Seating Arrangement (Clockwise around the table):
- K: Samsung
- L: Apple
- M: Pixel
- N: Xiaomi
- O: OnePlus
- P: Vivo

Finding the Answer:
- We need to find who sits second to the left of the one who uses a Vivo smartphone (P).
- Immediate left of P is K.
- Second to the left of P is L, who uses an Apple smartphone.
Therefore, the person sitting second to the left of the Vivo user is The one who uses an Apple smartphone.
