Quick Solution

This question requires us to first solve the main puzzle to determine the complete seating arrangement of the seven friends. Since they are facing East, the line has a North end and a South end, which are the "extreme ends".


1. Deducing the Final Arrangement

A step-by-step analysis of all the clues ("D is third from the south end", "B is at an extreme end", etc.) leads to a single, unique arrangement for the seven friends in the line.

The complete arrangement from the North end to the South end is:

(North)  B - E - G - F - D - C - A  (South)

2. Answering the Question

The question asks who is sitting at the two extreme ends of the line.

Looking at our final arrangement:

  • The person at the North end is B.
  • The person at the South end is A.

Final Answer: The persons sitting at the extreme ends are A & B.
