Question 183

In a building, the ground floor is numbered one, first floor is numbered two and so on till the topmost floor is numbered five. Amongst five people- M, N, O, P and Q, each living on a different floor, but not necessarily in the same order, on which floor does Q live ?
I. O lives on an odd numbered floor. M lives immediately below O. Only two people live between M and P. N lives neither immediately below M nor immediately below P.
II. N lives on an even numbered floor. Only two people live between N and O. Only one person lives between O and Q.

Solution

I : O lives on an odd numbered floor. M lives immediately below O. Only two people live between M and P. N lives neither immediately below M nor immediately below P.

The proper arrangement is :

Thus Q lives on 3rd floor, hence I alone is sufficient.


II : N lives on an even numbered floor. Only two people live between N and O. Only one person lives between O and Q.

The proper arrangement is :

Thus Q lives on 3rd floor, hence II alone is sufficient.

$$\therefore$$ Either statement alone is sufficient.
