Option 1 : Q

Six boxes - M, N, O, P, Q and R, are kept one above the other but not necessarily in the same order.

1. There is no box above box P.

2. Box R is third from the bottom.

P

R

3. There is only one box between box N and box R.

Case I	Case II
P	P
N

R	R

	N

4. Box Q is immediately below box N.

The above condition cannot be satisfied in Case II, so it is eliminated.

Case I

P

N

Q

R

3. There are only two boxes between box Q and box M.

Case I

P

N

Q

R

M

Only one box O is left and it will occupy the vacant position.

So, the final arrangement is shown below:

Case I

P

N

Q

R

O
