    Incorrect Answer

    Incorrect Answer

    Harman and Kartik

    Incorrect Answer
    Explanation:

    Let’s break it down one step at a time:

    - We’ve got five friends in a line, all facing north.

    - Mohit is second to the left of Arjun. So the order is: Mohit _ _ Arjun _ (or some similar positions, but Mohit must be two spots left of Arjun).

    - Harman is immediately to the right of Mohit. So Harman sits next to Mohit’s right side.

    - Surya is immediately to the left of Kartik. So Surya and Kartik are together, Surya on Kartik’s left.

    - There are two people between Surya and Mohit. So there’s a gap of exactly two seats between these two.

    If you sketch this out:

    - Let’s say positions: 1 2 3 4 5 (left to right).

    - Place Mohit at position 2 ? Mohit _ _ Arjun _

    But Harman must be immediately right of Mohit: so that's Mohit Harman ...

    - Surya and Kartik are together somewhere; Surya to Kartik's left.

    - If there are two people between Surya and Mohit, the only way this fits is:

    Surya _ _ Mohit Harman Kartik (but that's six people).

    - Try position 1 as Mohit: Mohit Harman _ _ _

    - Mohit must be second to the left of Arjun, so Arjun is at position 3.

    So: Mohit Harman Arjun _ _

    - Only Kartik and Surya left. Surya must be left of Kartik, so positions 4 and 5: Surya Kartik

    - Now, check if Surya and Mohit have two people between them: Mohit (1), Harman (2), Arjun (3), Surya (4), Kartik (5). Two people between Surya (4) and Mohit (1): Harman and Arjun. That fits.

    So the final order: Mohit, Harman, Arjun, Surya, Kartik

    Corners: Mohit (1) and Kartik (5)

    So, here’s what all that means:

    - Option 1: Mohit and Kartik – This matches the solution!

    - Option 2: Arjun and Kartik – No, Arjun is in the middle.

    - Option 3: Mohit and Arjun – They aren't both at the corners.

    - Option 4: Harman and Kartik – Harman sits next to Mohit, not at a corner.
