Answers :

Directions (1-5) :

Box I is third from either top or bottom of the stack and is placed immediately above Box R. Only two boxes are placed above Box Q. Three boxes are placed between Box Q and the yellow coloured box, which is two boxes above Box P.

Since, only two boxes are placed above Box Q; Case (1) gets eliminated.

Box Q, which is in brown colour, is placed immediately above Box J, which is in white colour. The box which is in pink colour is kept adjacent to Box J and the purple coloured box.

Box K, which is in green colour, is three boxes above Box J. Box H is not placed adjacent to the box which is in yellow colour and Box Q. Two boxes are placed between the one which is in violet colour and Box S.

Box S is placed four boxes below black coloured box.  So, the final arrangement is,

1) Answer: A  

2) Answer: B

3) Answer: D

4) Answer: B

5) Answer: C

6) Answer: D      

7) Answer: C

Direction (9-10):

9) Answer: D

K = L = N > O ≥ P

Therefore, option D is the correct answer.

10) Answer: C

F < H = I < N ≤ O

G = F < H

Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
