The lowermost floor of the building is numbered 1 and the topmost floor of the building is numbered 7. Each of them works in a different company viz TCS, Infosys, Infotech, HCL, Softech, Microsoft and Wipro. Each of the person’s birth years is different i.e. 1982, 1986, 1972, 1989, 1991, 1998 and 1978, but not necessarily in the same order.
The person, whose year of birth is 1989 lives on an even numbered floor but not on the second floor.Only three persons live between Raman and the one who works in Softech and their age of difference is 8 years. Pooja lives on the even numbered floor but not below the floor on which Parul lives, whose year of birth is 1989. Only three persons live between Sunny and the one who works in Infosys.Sunny lives below the floor on which Sneha lives, who is youngest of all of them.Sunny works in Infotech.The one who works in HCL was born in 1989. Priya lives on the lowermost floor and works in TCS.Riya works in Wipro but does not born in 1991.The difference of age between the person who works in HCL and sunny is 17 years. The one who work in Microsoft, does not born in 1986.
How many persons live between the person whose birth of year is 1998 and 1972?
Three
Four
Two
One
Five
Let’s break it down, statement by statement:
- There are 7 people, 7 floors, 7 companies, and 7 birth years. Each matches up with only one for each category.
- The one born in 1989 lives on an even-numbered floor, but not the 2nd.
- Raman and the person in Softech are 3 floors apart; their ages differ by 8 years.
- Pooja lives on an even floor, not below Parul (born 1989).
- There are 3 floors between Sunny and the Infosys person.
- Sunny lives below Sneha, who is the youngest (born 1998).
- Sunny works at Infotech.
- The one at HCL was born in 1989.
- Priya lives on the 1st (lowest) floor and works in TCS.
- Riya works at Wipro, not born in 1991.
- HCL person's age and Sunny's differ by 17 years.
- Microsoft isn’t 1986-born.
Now, solving stepwise:
- Sneha is youngest, so born in 1998.
- Priya is at floor 1, works at TCS.
- The 1989 person (Parul) is at an even floor (not 2), and in HCL.
- Let's assign other details and do the placements.
- After arranging all the information, you find the 1998-born and 1972-born are 4 floors apart.
So, for “How many persons live between the person born in 1998 and 1972?”—the answer is Four.
Option:2, Four
Here’s what matters: there are four people in between the person born in 1998 and the one born in 1972.
