The person who likes Black lives on the fourth floor so we have two possible cases: - e e w w The person who likes White lives below the person who likes Red. Four persons live between the one who likes White and the one who likes Blue. R lives above Q but does not like Blue so case-2 is eliminated. U lives immediately above T and immediately below P. U lives on an odd-numbered floor means U lives on 3rd floor, T lives on 2nd floor and P lives on 4th floor. S does not like Blue.
