    Solution

    From statement I alone, Three persons live between L and K. G lives just below I. I lives just below K. H lives above J, who lives just above F. J doesn't live on the even numbered floor. We get, L lives just above H. Data given in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the given question. From statement II alone, H lives two floors above F. F lives at one of the perfect square numbered floor. Two persons live between J and I. G lives two floors below K. No fix arrangement can be formed. Therefore, data given in statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the given question.
