It is given that L lives on an even numbered floor, so possible cases are:
6 - L
5
4

2
1
OR
6
5
4-L

Now, L lives on a floor immediately below Kās floor and immediately above Mās floor, So out of the above three only last two cases are possible. i.e
6
5-K
4-L
3-M
2
1
OR
6
5
4
3-K

4-L
3-M
2-P
1-N
OR
6-P
5-N
4
3-K
2-L
