Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given below:
Eight persons A, B, C, D, P, Q, R and S are sitting in a row adjacent to each other facing.north direction but not necessarily in same order. All of them live on different floors of an eight-floor building but not necessarily in same order. lowermost floor is numbered as 1, just above floor is numbered as 2 and so on till topmost floor is numbered as 8. Q sits `3^(rd)` from extreme end and lives at odd numbered floor. There are three floors gap between Q and the person who sits `2^(nd)` to the left of P. Persons who sit at extreme ends live in even numbered floors. There are as many persons sit left of Q as right of R who lives just below D: More than three persons sit between P and S who doesn't live in even numbered floor. Two persons sit between B and C who sits next to P. Two persons sit between D and A who lives just above Q. There are as many persons live above C as below B. Person who sits immediate right of D lives above Rand below Q. P lives below the persons who are immediate neighbours of Q.
What is the position of the person who lives just above P with respect to R?

Options

A. `3^(rd)` to the left
B. `4^(th)` to the right
C. `4^(th)` to the left
D. `3^(rd)` to the right

Answer

C

Explanation

Qsits `3^(rd)` from extreme end and lives at odd numbered floor. There are as many persons sit left of as right of R. More than three persons sit between P and S who doesn.t live in even numbered floor. Two persons sit between B and C who sits next to P. Persons who sit at extreme ends live in even numbered floors. There are three floors gap between Q and the person who sits `2^(nd)` to the left of P. Here, we get three possibilities i.e. Case 1, Case 2 and Case 3.

Two persons sit between D and A who lives just above Q. Here, Case 3 is ruled out. There are as many persons live above Cas below B. R lives just below D. Person who sits immediate right of D lives above and below Q. P lives below the persons who are immediate neighbors of Q. Here, Case 2 is ruled out now. So, the final arrangement will be: -
