It has been solved and explained by KD Live Experts under the guidance of Neetu Mam and they have tried to elaborate the concept used in Puzzle Questions.</p><h2 id="content-id-3572109864-3"><b> Comprehension On Puzzle Questions</b></h2>Direction: Read the given information carefully and answer the following questions.

There are eight floors in a building (the ground floor is numbered as 1, the first floor is numbered as 2, and so on). A different number of persons live on each floor i.e 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 13, 15, and 21 but not necessarily in the same order. The sum of the number of people living on the third and topmost floor is 10. Similarly, the sum of the number of people living on floor number 4 and floor number 2 is 25. 13 persons live on floor number 6. The number of people living on the ground floor is an odd number less than 13. Persons living on floor number 5 are the highest in number. The number of persons living on floor number 7 is greater than the number of persons living on the first floor. The persons living on floor number 2 is a multiple of 2.

</li><li><p>None of these</p>
</li></ol> <h2 id="content-id-9730481265-6"><b> Puzzle Questions Solution</b></h2><p>The correct answer is <strong>Option 3</strong> i.e<strong> Three</strong></p>

<p>1) First, we place, all definite information on the table. i.e 13 persons live on floor number 6 and 21 persons live on floor number five.</p>

<p>2) The sum of persons living on the 3rd floor and  8th floor is 10 which means it should be 6 and 4. So, we place it on the table.</p>

<p>3) Similarly, the sum of persons living on floor number 2 and floor number 4 is 25 it should be 10 and 15. Persons living on floor number 2 is multiple of 2 so clearly, 10 is a multiple of 2.</p>

<p>So, 10 persons live on the second floor and 15 persons live on the 4th floor.</p>

<p>4) Persons living on the first-floor living is less than floor number 7 so it should be 7 persons on the first floor and 9 persons on the 7th floor.</p>

<p>5) Now we have our final arrangement.</p>
