Cis-1,3-Dimethylcyclohexane
The most stable conformation of this compound has both methyl groups equatorial. With both of these groups equatorial and on non-adjacent carbon atoms, the most significant steric interactions are on the adjacent carbons. Please note that only some of the gauche interactions are shown here; both methyls will have gauche interactions with both hydrogens on .
