Q. Five boxes \u2013 A, B, C, D, and E are kept one above the above in a form of a stack. Each box contains different chocolate viz.- Snickers, Perk, 5-Star, Dairy Milk, and Melody. All the information is not necessary in the same order. Box E is kept exactly between the box which contains Perk and box C, which doesn\u2019t contain<\/span> Dairy Milk. The box which contains Perk is kept three places above box A, which contains 5-Star. The box which contains Melody is kept immediate below box D. Box E doesn\u2019t contain Melody.<\/span>

What is the position of the box which contains snickers with respect to box A?<\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A. Two places above<\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n

B. Immediate above<\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n

C. three places below<\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n

D. Immediately below<\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n

E. None of these<\/p> Ans: Immediately below<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sol:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Box E is kept exactly between the box which contains Perk and box C, which doesn\u2019t contain Dairy Milk. The box which contains Perk is kept three places above box A, which contains 5-
Star.
That means, in case (1) box which contains perk is kept at the top, and box E is kept immediately below the box which contains perk, in case (2) box which contains perk is kept second from top, and box E is kept immediately below the box
which contains perk, in case (3) box which contains perk is kept at the top, and box E is
kept two places below the box which contains
perk.
Again, we have:
The box which contains Melody is kept
immediate below box D. Box E doesn\u2019t contain
Melody.
That means, in case (3) box E contains Dairy
Milk, and box C contains Snickers, case (1) &
case (2) are not valid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based on the above given information we have:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Case (1) & case (2) are not valid as E doesn\u2019t
contain Melody.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thus, the box which contains Snickers is kept
immediately below box A.
Hence, option D is the correct choice.
Clearly, A sits fourth to the left of G.
Hence, option D is the correct choice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
