Rekha, Sameer, Tara, Umesh, Vandana, Waseem and Yamini each occupy one floor of a seven-floor office in Indore (floor one is the lowest). Tara works on the lowest floor and Vandana on the top floor. Only one person works between Tara and Rekha. Umesh works immediately below Vandana, and Sameer immediately below Umesh. Waseem works on a lower floor than Yamini. How many people work between Waseem and Umesh?

Question

Accepted Answer

Three. Tara 1, Vandana 7. One person between Tara and Rekha puts Rekha on 3. Umesh 6, Sameer 5. Floors 2 and 4 remain, and Waseem is lower, so Waseem 2 and Yamini 4. Between Waseem (2) and Umesh (6) are floors 3, 4 and 5 - three people (Rekha, Yamini, Sameer).
