Directions (1-5): Study the following information carefully and answer the given questions.

A, B, C, D, E, F, and G are sitting in a straight line facing north but not necessarily in the same order. Each one of them lives on a different floor in the same building which is numbered from one to seven.

G lives on the 3rd floor. The person living on 1st floor sits third to the right of D. D is not an immediate neighbour of G. Only one person lives between E and the person who lives on the 2nd floor. A and C are immediate neighbours of each other. A does not live on the 6th floor. One who lives on the 5th floor sits third to the right of the one who lives on the 7th floor.

A.C

B.F

C.D

D.B

E.None of these

Explanations:

1. B sits fourth to the left of the person living on the 6th floor. Either B or the person living on the 6th floor sits at the extreme ends of the line.

2. Only one person sits between B and G. G lives on the 3rd floor.

3. The person living on 1st floor sits third to the right of D. D is not an immediate neighbour of G. So CASE-1 and CASE-2(a) are to be eliminated.

CASE-2(b):

4. A and C are immediate neighbours of each other. A does not live on the 6th floor.
5. One who lives on the5th floor sits third to the right of the one who lives on the 7th floor.
6. Only one person lives between E and the person who lives on the 2nd floor.
