Question 171

As per the given arrangement, U is related to PNB and S is related to HDFC in a certain way. To which of the following is V related to in the same way ?

Solution

Z lives on an even numbered floor. Let Z lives on 6th floor, => The one who works at BOI lives on 2nd floor.

=> W lives on the first floor and the person who works at Axis bank lives on 3rd floor.

T does not work in BOI but lives immediately below V, who lives on an odd numbered floor, => T lives on 4th floor and V on 5th.

Only two persons live between T and the one who works at SBI and the one who works at SBI does not live on the lowermost floor, 

=> The one who works at SBI lives on 7th floor.

Also, the person who works at SVC lives on 4th floor immediately above the person working at PNB, => the person working at IDBI lives on 6th floor.

X and S are neighbors and X lives on even floor, => X lives on 8th floor immediately above S.

Since, X does not work in TJSB, => W works in TJSB and similarly, Y works in PNB.

The arrangement is :

U is related to PNB, => The person working in PNB lives immediately above U.

S is related to HDFC, => The person working in HDFC lives immediately above S.

Similarly, the person working in IDBI lives immediately above V, => V is related to IDBI.

=> Ans - (C)
