Answers:

Direction (1-5):

Only three persons are living between V and the one who has the number of chocolates which is perfect cube of a number. V lives in one of even numbered floors but below the floor number 6. The one who likes Badminton lives on the floor immediately above the person one who has 12 chocolates . The one who likes Badminton does not live on the topmost floor.

Only one person lives between T and the one who likes Basketball, who live one of the odd numbered floors below T. Q lives on the fifth floor and does not like Basketball. No one has below 12 chocolates. Only one person lives between the one who has minimum number of chocolates and the one who likes Hockey, who has 35 chocolates.

The one who has 18 chocolates lives immediately below P, who does not live on the second floor. Two persons are living between S and the one who likes Wrestling. S lives one of the odd numbered floors above Wrestling. Q does not have the chocolates in multiples of 9.

Two persons are living between the one who has 21 chocolates and the one who likes Cricket, who sits one floors below the one who has 21 chocolates.

So, Case-1(a) and Case-1(b) are dropped.

W has the number of chocolates in multiples of 13. The sum of the chocolates of U and Q is equal to the number of chocolates of W. U does not like Wrestling and Basketball.

From the above statement, U+Q=W(13/26/39). In the Case-2(a), U(14/27)+Q(12)=W(26/39). In the Case-2(b), U(27)+Q(12)=W(39). But already one person has 12 chocolates.

So, Case-2(b) will be dropped.

In the Case-2(a), U(27)+Q(12)=W(39).

The one who likes Tennis lives on the floor immediately above R. S does not like Golf. The one who likes Basketball has the number of chocolates is double the number of chocolates does the one who likes Golf has. V has the number of chocolates 5 more than the one who lives in lowermost floor.
