Question
Which of the following box was placed at a gap of two
boxes from 5 star chocolate box? Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given below Six boxes of different chocolates were stacked one above the other in an almirah. Nestle chocolate box was placed below Dairy milk chocolate box, which was placed immediately above the 5 star chocolate box. Neither the Snickers nor Kit-kat chocolate box was placed at the bottom of the stack. Nestle chocolate box was placed below the Galaxy chocolate box, which was placed at the gap of 2 boxes below Kit-kat chocolate box. Snickers chocolate box was not placed adjacent to Galaxy chocolate box.Solution
Nestle chocolate box was placed below the Galaxy chocolate box, which was placed at the gap of 2 boxes below Kit-kat chocolate box. Here, we have three possible scenarios in which the above hints can be used accordingly CASE-1 Â Snickers chocolate box was not placed adjacent to Galaxy chocolate box. Â Neither the Snickers nor Kit-kat chocolate box was placed at the bottom of the stack. Â At this point we cannot fix the position of Snickers chocolate box in case 2 and 3 according to the given hints so we can say that case 2 and case 3 are invalid cases .
