Kiran, Lata, Mohan, Neha, Om, Pooja and Ravi each live on a different floor of a seven-storey hostel in Kota (the lowest floor is the first, the highest is the seventh). Mohan lives on the top floor and Lata lives on the fourth floor. Kiran lives immediately above Lata, and Pooja lives somewhere above Kiran. Om lives immediately below Ravi, and Neha lives below Om. How many people live between Om and Kiran?

Question

Accepted Answer

Two. Bottom to top: Neha, Om, Ravi, Lata, Kiran, Pooja, Mohan (Mohan 7th, Lata 4th, Kiran 5th, Pooja must take the 6th; on floors 1-3 Ravi is directly above Om with Neha below, so Neha 1st, Om 2nd, Ravi 3rd). Om is on the 2nd floor and Kiran on the 5th, so Ravi and Lata live between them - two people.
