Which of the following box are between J and N ........

Logical Reasoning(IBPS RRB PO) Ranking and ordering

Direction: Read the given information and answer the following questions;

Ten Boxes are placed one above the other in any particular order. Box number 1 is at the bottom and Box no 10 is at the top. Arrange them as per the information given here.

There are four boxes kept between B and E. Box C is placed at the top. There are two boxes between Box O and Box K. Box E is placed at odd number position. Box W is at 7th number box. Box J and Box K is kept in a place immediately above and immediately below Box W. Box N is placed exactly between the box D and box E. One of the boxes placed is L.

Explanation:

Let’s break this puzzle down step by step:

- Box C is on top, so position 10 is C.

- Box W is in position 7. J is just above W (so J is in 8), K is just below W (so K is in 6).

- There are two boxes between O and K.

- If K is 6, O can only be at 3 or 9.

- E is on an odd number. There are four boxes between B and E.

- N is exactly between D and E, so there's an equal gap above and below N for D and E.

Now, focusing on the question—what’s *between* J and N? Let’s place what we know so far:

10. C

9. -

8. J

7. W

6. K

5. -

4. -

3. or 9: could be O

2. -

1. -

If N isn’t at 9 (because we need space for D and E with N exactly between), maybe it’s at 5. Then D at 3 and E at 7 or vice versa, but E is already on an odd, and W is at 7, not E.

Let’s check—between J (8) and N (say, at 5)—the boxes at 7 and 6, which are W and K.

So the answer is option 1: W, K.

Here's why each option stacks up:

- Option 1: W, K—these are definitely the boxes between J and N.

- Option 2: E, C—no way, they're not consecutive in the right spot.

- Option 3: K, N—not between J and N.

- Option 4: O, B—not close to J or N.

- Option 5: O, D—again, not relevant to the exact middle.

That’s how it all fits together!
