P does not live on the lowermost floor. S lives immediately below R but R does not live on top most floor. Neither R nor T live on floor number 6. U lives immediately above P.

Question 36

How many persons live between the floors on which P and S live?

Solution

Only two persons live below the floor on which V lives, => V lives on 3rd floor

Only one person lives between V and P and P does not live on the lowermost floor, => P lives on 5th floor.

W lives on an odd numbered floor but not on floor number 7, => W lives on 1st floor.

Only two persons live between W and Q, => Q lives on 4th floor.

S lives immediately below R but R does not live on top most floor, => R lives on 8th floor and S on 7th.

U lives immediately above P, => U lives on 6th floor.

Since, X does not live on top floor, => X lives on 2nd floor and T lives on 9th floor.

Only 1 person live between P and S.

=> Ans - (E)
