Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given below. Eight friends A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H live on eight different floors of a building but not necessarily in the same order. The lowermost floor of the building is numbered one and the topmost floor of the building is numbered eight. Each of them likes different games viz.

H lives just below the one who likes Wrestling. Only one person lives between C and the one who likes Golf.     ÂSolution
By I and V, Rugby can be on 2nd, 4th or 6th floor. So here we get 4 conditions. By II and IV we get the following arrangement. By III A lives just above F. Only two persons live between E and A. E does not live on 1st floor. I condition –  By IV and II,  I condition is not possible.    II condition –    By II and IV Basketball can be either above or below F. So here we get two more conditions that is why we will hold this condition and move further with other conditions.Â
III condition –  By II and IV, C does not like Basketball. B lives on an even- numbered floor and just above C.      By V and VI, The one who likes Table Tennis lives on an even- numbered floor and lives just above the person who likes Wrestling and H lives just below the one who likes Wrestling. By I and VI, the one who likes Volleyball lives on an even- numbered floor. Only two persons live between the one who likes Volleyball and the one who likes Football. This condition is not possible.
IV condition –     By II and IV, C does not like Basketball. B lives on an even- numbered floor and just above C. By V and VI, The one who likes Table Tennis lives on an even- numbered floor and lives just above the person who likes Wrestling and H lives just below the one who likes Wrestling. By I and VI, the one who likes Volleyball lives on an even- numbered floor. Only two persons live between the one who likes Volleyball and the one who likes Football.  By VI, Only one person lives between C and the one who likes Golf. D does not like Archery. So this condition is the final arrangement.Â
