Reasoning Quiz For RBI Grade B Phase 1 2023-03rd April

Directions (1-5): Answer the following questions based on the information given below.
There are two types of flats i.e., flat A and flat B on each floor of a five- floor building. The bottommost floor is numbered as 1, just above it is numbered as 2 and so on till the topmost floor is numbered as 5. Flat A is in west of Flat B. Ten persons (P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, and Y) live in these flats such that one person lives in each flat but not necessarily in the same order.
Note: If a person lives in a flat adjacent to another person, then both persons live on the same floor. If a person lives two/three floors above/below another person, then both persons live in the same type of flat unless stated otherwise.
Q doesn’t live in Flat B. U lives immediately above V. P lives two floors above W but not in the same type of flat. Y lives adjacent to S but not in the same type of flat as W. Both U and V live on a prime numbered floor. W lives two floors above X. Neither U nor V lives adjacent to X. Neither Q nor R lives above S. V doesn’t live adjacent to R.
