Eight people — A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H — live on eight different floors of a building (floor 1 is the bottom-most and floor 8 the top-most), one person per floor. C lives on the top-most floor. F lives immediately below C. There are four floors between F and G. G lives immediately above D. E lives immediately above G. There are two floors between E and A. B lives immediately above E. H lives above B and below A. On which floor does H live?

Question

Accepted Answer

5. C=8, F=7. Four floors between F(7) and G gives G=2, D=1, E=3. Two floors between E(3) and A gives A=6. B immediately above E gives B=4. H above B(4) and below A(6) gives H=5. Bottom to top: D, G, E, B, H, A, F, C.
