Question

    Study the following information carefully and answer the question given below: Eight persons viz. P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, and W live on an eight storey building, but not necessarily in the same order. The bottommost floor is numbered as one and the topmost floor is numbered as eight. W lives three floors below U, who lives below the eighth floor. There are an even number of floors above U. Only one person lives between R and W. Only two persons live between R and P. Q lives just above S. Q doesn’t live on a prime numbered floor. T lives on one of the floors above V. T doesn’t live adjacent to P.

    Who among the following person lives on the bottommost floor?

    A P Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B W Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C V Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D S Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Here we have, W lives three floors below U, who lives below the eighth floor. There are an even number of floors above U. Only one person lives between R and W. Here we get three possibilities. Case-I and case-III get eliminated because no space left for T.
