Direction: Read the given information carefully and answer the questions that are given below.

There are 10 persons namely J, K, L, M, N, P, Q, R, S, and T. They stay in a five floored building. The bottom floor is numbered 1 and the top floor is numbered 5. Each floor of the building has two flats namely flat A and flat B. Flat A is to the west of flat B. Flat A of floor 2 is immediately above the flat A of floor 1 and immediately below flat A of floor 3 and flat B of floor 2 is immediately above the flat B of floor 1 and immediately below the flat B of floor 3, it is similar for all the other floors. Here, the same flat type means if one person stays in flat A then the other person also stays in flat A if they are staying in the same flat type.

Q stays in flat A of an odd-numbered floor, but not the topmost floor. There are two floors between the floor of N and R. J stays just above Q. S and N are in different flat types on different floors. S stays on the topmost floor. There is no one to the east of R. M is to the north-east of L. N and R stay in the same flat type. P stays on one of the floors below Q, but not immediately below. R’s floor is just below the floor of S. M does not stay on the fifth floor. T stays below K.

Who is staying to the west of M?

  1. S
  2. L

Names given: J, K, L, M, N, P, Q, R, S, and T

Floors: 1 (lowermost floor) to 5 (topmost floor)

Flat: Flat A (West) and Flat B (East)

1) S stays on the topmost floor.

(Here there are two cases, Case 1: when S stays in flat A, Case 2: when S stays in flat B).

2) There is no one to the east of R.

(So, R stays in the flat B).

3) R’s floor is just below the floor of S.

(Hence, R stays on floor 4).

Case 1: when S stays in flat A

4) There are two floors between the floor of N and R.

(Hence, N stays on floor 1).

5) N and R stay in the same flat type.

(Hence, N stays in flat B).

6) S and N are in different flat types on different floors.

(As, N is in flat B, S will be in flat A so we can eliminate case 2 here).

7) Q stays in flat A of an odd-numbered floor, but not the topmost floor.

(As Q does not stay on the topmost floor then Q can either stay on floor 1 or floor 3).

8) P stays on one of the floors below Q, but not immediately below.

(As, P stays below Q, Q cannot stay on floor 1 as there are no floors below Q for P in that case and as P stays below Q’s floor but not immediately below so P stays on floor 1).

9) J stays just above Q.

10) M is to the northeast of L.

(Here, for M to be north-east of L, L will be on flat A of floor 2 and for M there are two cases when M is in flat B on floor 3 or flat B on floor 5).

11) M does not stay on the fifth floor.

(So, M will be on the third floor in flat B).

12) T stays below K.

Hence, the final arrangement will be as follows:
