Eight persons Arman, Binny, Chinnu, Dinnu, Ellen, Francis, Gouri and Hema live on an eight floors building. The ground floor is numbered 1 and the topmost floor is 8. They run in a race of different meters 2500 m, 4600 m, 5100 m, 6800 m, 7400 m, 8500 m, 9200 m and 9700 m but not necessarily in the same order.

Persons: Arman, Binny, Chinnu, Dinnu, Ellen, Francis, Gouri and Hema.

Floors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8.

Runs: 2500 m, 4600 m, 5100 m, 6800 m, 7400 m, 8500 m, 9200 m and 9700 m.

1) The one who runs 9700m lives on an even numbered floor below 5^th floor.

So, he can be live on 2^nd or 4^th floor.

Case 1:

If the one who runs 9700 m lives on 2^nd floor.

2) There are two persons that live between the one who runs 9700 m and Ellen.

The one who runs 7400 m lives immediately below Ellen.

The ones who live on 3^rd and 4^th floors run a total of 12200 m.

Case 1:

Ellen must live on 5^th floor.

The one who runs 7400 m lives on 4^th floor.

The one who lives on 3^rd floor = 12200 – 7400 = 4800 m, but we know that there is no person in the group who runs 4800 m. So this case is not correct.

Case 2:

Ellen can live on 1^st or 7^th floor but we know that the one who runs 7400 m lives immediately below Ellen. So, Ellen can’t live on 1^st floor.

Ellen must live on 7^th floor and the one who runs 7400 m lives on 6^th floor.

We know that the one who runs 9700 m lives on 4^th floor. So, 12200 – 9700 = 2500 m.

So, the one who lives on 3^rd floor runs 2500 m.

Floor	Person	Meter

7	Ellen
6		7400

4		9700
3		2500

3) The difference between runs by Gouri and Hema is 1700m and neither of them runs 8500m. So only one combination left for them which is 8000m and 5100m and we know that Hema runs more than Gouri. So, Hema runs 6800m and Gouri runs 5100m.

The total runs of Arman and Gouri is 7600 m. Gouri runs 5100 m. So, Arman runs 7600 – 5100 = 2500 m.

Chinnu lives on an even numbered floor immediate above Binny, who is not living on lowermost floor.

So, Chinnu lives either on 6^th floor or 4^th floor.

Case 2 (a):

If Chinnu lives on 4^th floor.

Binny lives on 3^rd floor and runs 2500m.

But we know that Arman runs 2500 m.

So, this case is not possible.

Case 2 (b):

If Chinnu lives on 6^th floor.

Binny lives on 5h floor.

Floor	Person	Meter

7	Ellen
6	Chinnu	7400
5	Binny
4		9700
3		2500

4) Binny must live on 5^th floor and we know that Arman runs 2500m so he lives on 3^rd floor.

Only one person lives Between Arman and Hema. Hema must live on 1^st floor and runs 6800 m.

The one who runs 4600 m lives immediately above Francis.

Only one place left for Francis which is 4^th floor and Binny must runs 4600 m.

Ellen runs more than Chinnu but less than Dinnu. So, Ellen must run 8500 m and Dinnu must run 9200 m.

The one who lives immediately above Hema runs less than Hema.

So, we have Gouri (5100 m) and Dinnu (9200 m).

So, Gouri immediately above Hema because Gouri runs less than Hema and Dinnu must live on topmost floor.
