Study the following information carefully and answer the
questions given below Among six persons — K. L. M, N, 0 and P— each lives on a different floor of a building having six floors numbered one to six (the ground floor is numbered 1, the floor above it is numbered 2 and so on and the topmost flour is numbered 6). L lives on an even numbered floor. L lives on a floor immediately below K’s floor and immediately above M’s floor. P lives on a floor immediately above N’s floor. P lives on an even numbered floor. 0 does not live on floor number 4.
On which floor does 0 live ?
Let the floors be :
6
5
4
3
2
1
It is given that L lives on an even numbered floor, so possible cases are:
6 - L
5
4
3
2
1
OR
6
5
4-L
3
2
1
OR
6
5
4
3
2-L
1
Now, L lives on a floor immediately below K’s floor and immediately above M’s 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
2-L
1-M
Now, P lives on a floor immediately above N’s floor. P lives on an even numbered floor. So possible case is
6
5-K
4-L
3-M
2-P
1-N
OR
6-P
5-N
4
3-K
2-L
1-M
It is given that O does not live on floor 4, So,the answer is
6-O
5-K
4-L
3-M
2-P
1-N
