Six boxes A, B, C, D, E, and F are placed one above another, also they are occupied with different items i.e. O, P, Q, S, N, and M (but not necessarily in the same order).

Box which is occupied with Q is not placed at top. A is placed either top or bottom, only 2 boxes are placed between A and D, which is occupied with S. Only 1 box is placed between D and F. Box E is not placed just above and below D. Box E is not placed just below the box which is occupied with O. Box which is occupied with M is placed between D and F. The box which is placed just above B is occupied with P. The box which is placed at bottom occupied with N. Box B is not placed above A.

Q1. Box C is occupied with which of the following item?
(a) N
(b) P
(c) S
(d) M
(e) None of these

Q2. Which of the following box is placed at top?
(a) A
(b) F
(c) C
(d) E
(e) None of these

Q3. How many boxes are placed between box F and box E?
(a) One
(b) Three
(c) Two
(d) More than three
(e) None of these

Q4. Which box is placed just above box B?
(a) D
(b) The box which is occupied with P
(c) F
(d) Both (b) and (c)
(e) None of these

Q5. Box B is occupied with which of the following item?
(a) N
(b) P
(c) M
(d) Q
(e) None of these

Solutions (1-5):

(i). A is placed either top or bottom, only 2 boxes are placed between A and D, which is occupied with S. The box which is placed bottom occupied with N. Box B is not placed above A. Only 1 box is placed between D and F, so 2 cases formed. Box E is not placed just above and below D. Box which is occupied with M is placed between D and F.

(ii). The box which is placed just above B is occupied with P, so B’s position will be fixed in both cases. Box which is occupied with Q is not placed at top, so B occupied with Q, and C occupied with M in case 1. A occupied with O. Box E is not placed just below the box which is occupied with O, so case 1 will be eliminated and we get final answer.

Solutions (6-10):

(i) No two boxes according to alphabetical order are placed adjacent to each other. Box E is placed at 2nd position either from top or from bottom. Only 2 boxes are between F and C. Box D is placed just below F. Box B is placed above C but not at top. Only 1 box is placed between C and G. by concluding these conditions we will have 2 cases.

(ii) Box B is placed above C but not at top, case1 B will placed at bottom so this case will be cancelled because B is placed above C. In case2 B will be placed at 2nd position from top. A will be placed just above C and H will be paced at top. We get final answer.
