Each of the floors consist of 3 flats as flat-1, flat-2 and flat-3. Flat-1 of floor-2 is immediately above flat-1 of floor-1 and immediately below flat-1 of floor-3 and in the same way flat-2 of floor-2 is immediately above flat-2 of floor-1 and immediately below flat-2 of floor-3 and so on. Flat-2 is in east of flat-1 and flat-3 is in east of flat-2.Each of them likes different fruits i.e. Apple, Mango, Grapes, Banana, Watermelon, Kiwi, Papaya, Guava and Orange.

    A X likes papaya and lives to the west of R Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B U lives on Floor 3 and Flat-2 and likes Guava Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Both who likes Banana and Kiwi live in the same flat Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Both B and C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    X who likes Papaya lives to the immediate west of R who likes Mango and lives in Flat-3 of Floor-1. T and P lives in the same flat which is Flat-3.Note: Here we get one more case. Case-1 Number of Flats towards west of T is equal to the number of flats towards east of V, but in different floors. Note: Here we get one more possibility from each case. Thus 4 we have total cases Case-1 U does not live on Floor-2 but lives to the East of the one who likes Apple who does not live in an even numbered flat. W does not like Apple and lives one of the extreme west flat. Note: U must live on Flat-2 of Floor-3 (only possibility in all cases). Also we get only possibility for W in each case, except case-2 Case-1 The one who likes Watermelon fruit and S lives in the same flat. Q lives northwest of S Note: Case-2 gets rejected since Q lives northwest of S is not possible. Case-1 The one who likes Orange lives to the immediate west of the one who likes Guava and T likes Grapes. Persons like Orange fruit and Banana fruit lives in the same flat and W does not like Banana fruit. The one who likes Kiwi doesnтАЩt live in topmost floor. Note: T likes Grapes as given. Finally P likes Kiwi in case-1-A Case-1 gets rejected since W doesnтАЩt like Banana Case-2-A gets rejected since the one who likes Kiwi doesnтАЩt live in topmost floor Case-1A (Final arrangement)
