    C A, G Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D D, K Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E F, I Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Only 5 persons sit between A and I when counted from the right of A. K sits second to the left of I. Only four persons sit between K and J. Here we get two possibilities Case (1) and Case (2). D is an immediate neighbor of J. B sits fifth to the right of D. H sits third to the left of K. E sits second to the left of C. Here Case 1 gets eliminated. Number of letters between E and I in the alphabetical series is same as the number of persons sitting between A and G.
