    B A Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C E Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E The one who lives immediately above B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    We have, A lives four floors below C, either of them lives on the topmost floor or bottommost floor. Only two floors are there between A and B. From the above condition, there are three possibilities. Again we have, E lives three floors above H who lives on an even number floor. The number of floors between H and D is the same as the number of floors between I and F. F and E does not live on the adjacent floor. From the above condition, case-1 and case-2 get eliminated. Case-1a shows the final arrangement.
