    A Two Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Four Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Three Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D More than four Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    From (i), (ii) and (iii), As we know that P lives above the floor no. 5 and also does not live on an odd numbered floor. P cannot live on floor no. 8 as O lives above P. So, P lives on floor no. 6. Now there will be two cases: S can live either at place no. 4 or 2. T can live either at place no. 2 or 4. From (ii), M and O will live on floor no. 8 and 7 respectively. Q and R will live on floor no. 5 and 1 respectively. Case 2 will get discarded as N lives one of the floors above on which T lives. Final arrangement as shown below:
