Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
The mango person is at the extreme position because no one sits to that person's right.
Apple is placed with six persons between mango and apple, rose is third to the left of apple, and marigold has exactly one person to the right.
These placements make the row contain fifteen persons.
