Anuj, Bhola, Chandan, Dilip, Eswar, and Faisal live on different floors in a six-storeyed building (the ground floor is numbered 1, the floor above it 2, and so on). Anuj lives on an even-numbered floor. Bhola does not live on an odd-numbered floor. Chandan does not live on any of the floors below Faisal’s floor. Dilip does not live on floor number 2. Eswar does not live on a floor immediately above or immediately below Bhola. Faisal lives three floors above Dilip. Which of the following floor-person combinations is correct?

Correct Answer Anuj - 2, Bhola - 6, Chandan - 5, Dilip - 1, Eswar - 3, Faisal - 4
Given,
There is a six-storeyed building, the ground floor is numbered 1, the floor above it 2 and so on.
Given conditions:
1) Anuj lives on an even-numbered floor → Possible floor numbers are 2, 4 and 6.
2) Bhola does not live on an odd-numbered floor → Possible floor numbers are 2, 4 and 6.
3) Chandan does not live on any of the floors below Faisal’s floor → Chandan's floor number > Faisal's floor number.
4) Dilip does not live on floor number 2
5) Eswar does not live on a floor immediately above or immediately below Bhola → The difference between floor number of Eswar and Bhola > 1
6) Faisal lives three floors above Dilip → The difference between floor number of Faisal and Dilip = 3
All these conditions are satisified in option 2
Thus, respective positions are Anuj - 2, Bhola - 6, Chandan - 5, Dilip - 1, Eswar - 3, Faisal - 4
