The Red box is placed exactly between the Green and Blue box. The Yellow box is kept exactly above the Violet box. The Pink box is kept at the top. Which colour box is placed 6th from the bottom? Correct Answer Brown
Logic followed here is:
There is a total of seven boxes of different colors.
Middle means:
| Middlebox |
i) Violet Box is kept in the middle i.e in the 4th place
| Violet |
ii) The Pink box is kept at the top i.e in the first place.
| Pink |
| Violet |
iii) The Yellow box is kept exactly above the Violet box.
| Pink |
| Yellow |
| Violet |
iv) The Red box is placed exactly between the Green and Blue box.
Green box = 5th
Red box = 6th
Blue box = 7th
| Pink |
| Yellow |
| Violet |
| Green |
| Red |
| Blue |
Therefore the remaining place is the 2nd place that is occupied by the Brown box which is 6th from the bottom.
| Pink |
| Brown |
| Yellow |
| Violet |
| Green |
| Red |
| Blue |
Hence, the correct answer is "Brown".
