DIRECTIONS: Study the information carefully and answer the question given below.

The total number of persons living between Ashwani and Geeta is same as the total number of persons living between Ashwani and Prachi. There is one person living between Neha and Prachi who lives just below Arun. Zaheer lives on an odd number floor below 6th floor. There are two persons live between Zaheer and Neha.
