Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven: M, N, O, P, Y 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 M lives above N.
2) Z lives immediately below N.
| Floor | Person |
| 6 | M |
| 5 | N |
| 4 | Z |
| 3 | |
| 2 | |
| 1 |
3) Only P lives below O.
After positioning O and P only one position is left which will be occupied by the only person left i.e. Y.
| Floor | Person |
| 6 | M |
| 5 | N |
| 4 | Z |
| 3 | Y |
| 2 | O |
| 1 | P |
Thus, Y lives on floor numbered 3.
Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.
