Six persons R, S, T, U, V and W live in six storied building such that bottommost floor is numbered as 1 and the floor immediately above it is numbered as 2 and so on. How many persons live below F? Statement I: S lives three floors above T. Only one person lives between T and W. V lives two floors below R. Statement II: U lives in an even numbered floor above S. Only three persons live between S and V. S lives above R but not immediately above.
    A Data given in both statement I and statement II together are not sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Data given in both statement I alone and statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Data given in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Data given in statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Data given in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    From statement I, S lives three floors above T. Only one person lives between T and W. V lives two floors below R. We get: Case 1: Case 2: Case 3: So, from statement I alone, we get either five, no or four persons live below U. From statement II, U lives in an even numbered floor above S. Only three persons live between S and V. S lives above R but not immediately above. We get: So, from statement II alone, we get five persons live below U. Therefore, data given in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.
