Eight neighbours — Asha, Bhanu, Chetan, Divya, Esha, Farhan, Gopal and Hema — live one per floor in an eight-storey building (floor 1 is the lowest, floor 8 the highest). Gopal lives on the top floor. Exactly three people live between Gopal and Farhan. Bhanu lives immediately below Farhan. Divya lives on an odd-numbered floor below Bhanu. Hema lives immediately above Divya. Asha lives immediately above Farhan. Chetan does not live immediately above Asha. Who lives on the sixth floor?

Question

Accepted Answer

Esha. Gopal is on 8, so Farhan (three people between) is on 4 and Bhanu on 3. Divya is on an odd floor below 3, i.e. 1, and Hema on 2. Asha is on 5. Chetan and Esha take 6 and 7; Chetan is not on 6, so Chetan is on 7 and Esha on 6. Order from floor 1: Divya, Hema, Bhanu, Farhan, Asha, Esha, Chetan, Gopal. Floor 6 is Esha's.
