Answers :

Directions (1-3) :

  • It is given that,the area of each room of one of the flats on the odd number floor is 210 ft.
  • The floor having 12 rooms is one of the floors below the floor having each room area of 360 ft.
  • The area of each room on floor 3rd of Flat A is 420ft more than the area of each room of the flat has12 rooms.

  • So, case 1 gets eliminated.
  • The flat having each room area 504 ft is an even number floor.
  • The Flat having each room area of 315 ft is kept immediately below the flat having 5 rooms.

  • The total number of Rooms in all the flats of floor 2nd is 15.
  • The number of Rooms in Flat C of 2nd floor is more than the number of Rooms in Flat A of 2nd floor but less than the number of rooms in Flat B of 2nd floor. So, case 3gets eliminated.
  • The flat having each room area of 420 ft is in the west of the flat having each room area of 252 ft.

1) Answer: B

2) Answer: C

3) Answer: D

Directions (4-7) :

We have:

  • B, who is an Assistant Manager, works on an even number floor takes lift II.
  • H who works three floors above B and is neither Assistant Manager nor takes the same lift as of B.

That means, in case (1) H works in ICICI, and takes lift I, in case (2) H works in ICICI, and takes lift III.

  • The one who is Clerk from SBI takes lift I and works three floors below L, who neither work in the same bank along with C nor takes lift III.
  • The designation of H and L is the same, but not an Assistant Manager.

That means, in case (1) & case (2a) L takes lift II, in case (2b) L takes lift I.

Based on the above given information we have:

Again, we have:

  • E works on one of the floors below H and designated as Manager.
  • I and O work in the same bank along with E, who doesn’t take lift II.

That means, in case (1), case (2a) & case (2b) E works in BOB and takes lift III.

  • L and D, who is a Clerk works in the same Bank.
  • The one who is Manager from ICICI is not taking lift III.

Since, L is not an assistant Manager and L also can’t be a clerk, thus both L and H must be Managers.

That means, in case (1) H is designated as Manager, case (2a) & case (2b) are not valid.

Based on the above given information we have:

Case (2a) & case (2b) are not valid as the Manager from ICICI is not taking lift III.

Again, we have:

  • The designations of I and C are the same, but none of them takes the lift III.
  • C and K, who is an assistant manager are working on the same floor.

That means, C is a Clerk and works in SBI.

  • N works on the same floor along with F, who takes lift II.

That means, F takes lift II and works in ICICI.

  • G works as a Manager and works three floors below J, who doesn’t take the same lift as of A.

That means, G works in SBI and A works in PNB.

Based on the above given information we have the final arrangement as follows:

4) Answer: A

5) Answer: B

6) Answer: A

7) Answer: E

Directions (8-10) :

We have:

  • The total number of rooms on floor number 3 is 57.
  • The area of each room of flat I from floor number 3 is 94.5m2.

That means, number of rooms from the flat I of floor number 3 = 2268/94.5 = 24.

  • The number of rooms in flat II of floor 2 is 3/4th of the number of rooms from the flat I of floor number 3.

thus, the number of rooms in flat II of floor number 2 = 24 x 3/4 = 18.

Based on the above given information we have:

Again, we have:

  • The area of each room from flat II of floor 3 is 63m2 more than the area of each room from flat II of floor number 2.

Thus, the area of each room from flat II of floor 3 = 189m2.

That means, number of rooms in flat II of floor 3 = 2268/189 = 12

Since, the total number of rooms from floor 3 = 57

Thus, the number of rooms from flat III of floor 3 = 57 – 36 = 21.

Area of each room from flat III of floor 3 = 2268/21 = 108m2.

  • The area of each room from flat III of floor number 3 is twice the number of rooms from flat III of floor number 1.

Thus, the number of rooms from flat III of floor number 1 = 54.

  • The number of rooms from the flat I of floor 2 is equal to the area of each room from flat III of floor 1.

Thus, the number of rooms from flat I on floor 2 = 42.

  • The number of rooms in the flat I taken all floors together is 72.

Thus, number of rooms from flat I of floor 1 = 72 – (42 + 24) = 6

  • The number of rooms from flat I of floor number 1 is the square root of the number of rooms from the flat III of floor number 2.

Thus, the number of rooms from flat III of floor 2 = 36.

Based on the above given information we have:

Again, we have:

  • The total number of rooms from the flat I is 14 more than the total number of rooms from flat II.

Thus, the number of rooms from flat II = 72 – 14 = 58

That means, the number of rooms from flat II of floor 1 = 58 – (12 + 18) = 28

Based on the above given information we have the final arrangement as follows:

8) Answer: E

9) Answer: B

10) Answer: C
