Download Solution PDFGiven: E, F, K, L, M and Z live on six different floors of the same building. The lowermost floor in the building is numbered 1, the floor above it, number 2 and so on till the topmost floor is numbered 6.
1) Only K lives above E.
2) L lives on the lowermost floor.
| Floor | Person |
| 6 | K |
| 5 | E |
| 4 | |
| 3 | |
| 2 | |
| 1 | L |
3) Only two people live between L and Z.
4) F lives on an even numbered floor.
After positioning Z and F only one position is left which will be occupied by the only person left i.e. M.
| Floor | Person |
| 6 | K |
| 5 | E |
| 4 | Z |
| 3 | M |
| 2 | F |
| 1 | L |
Thus, according to the final arrangement two people live between M and K.
Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.
