i) A, B, C, D, E and F are six friends.

ii) E and D live in higher floor than A.

E, D > A.

iii) D lives in lower floor than E.

E > D > A

iv) B lives in lower floor than A.

A > B.

v) A and F lives in lower floor than C.

C > A, F

vi) A lives in higher floor than F.

A > F

So final orders are:

Floor → E > D > A > B, C > A > F

Thus from the order we can say that F or B lives in lowest floor i.e. option 2.

Hence the right option is 2.
