Directions: Study the following information carefully to answer the given questions.

There are eight people S, T, U, V, W, X, Y and Z staying in eight floors and belong to eight different states Delhi, Gujarat, Rajasthan, Kerala, Bihar, Maharashtra, Punjab and Goa. But not necessarily in the same order.

Z lives in an odd numbered floor but doesn’t live on the third floor. Z does not belong to Gujarat. There are three floors between Z and the one who belongs to Rajasthan. The number of floors in which Z lives is equal to the number of floors below X. There are three floors between X and S. V lives immediately below Y. Y lives on an odd numbered floor. More than one people live between W and the person who belongs to Delhi. Y lives one of the floors above X. One person lives between Y and the person who belongs to Maharashtra. The person who belongs to Kerala lives one of the odd floors above U. U lives on an odd numbered floor. The number of persons living between U and Z is equal to the number of persons living between S and Goa. More than two people live between Y and Bihar. T does not belong to Bihar and Delhi. The person who belongs to Punjab lives on floor which is multiple of 2 and 4.
