Only two boxes are kept below B. Only one box is kept above G. Only one box is kept between G and A. C is kept immediately above F. E is kept at some place below D.
How many boxes are kept below E?
Analyze the Clues and Determine Box Positions
We need to determine the vertical arrangement of seven boxes (A, B, C, D, E, F, G) based on the given clues. Let's denote the positions from 1 (bottom) to 7 (top).
- Clue 1: "Only two boxes are kept below B." This places B at position 3.
Arrangement: _, _, B, _, _, _, _ (Positions 7 to 1) - Clue 2: "Only one box is kept above G." This places G at position 6 (second from the top).
Arrangement: _, G, _, _, B, _, _ - Clue 3: "Only one box is kept between G and A." Since G is at position 6, A must be at position 4 (with the box at position 5 in between).
Arrangement: _, G, _, A, B, _, _ - Clue 4: "C is kept immediately above F." This forms a 'CF' block. The available adjacent slots are positions 2 and 1. So, C is at position 2, and F is at position 1.
Arrangement: _, G, _, A, B, C, F - Clue 5: "E is kept at some place below D." The remaining boxes are D and E, and the remaining slots are positions 7 and 5. For E to be below D, D must be at the top (position 7) and E must be below it (position 5).
Final Arrangement (Top to Bottom): D(7), G(6), E(5), A(4), B(3), C(2), F(1)
Final Arrangement Verification
Let's verify the final arrangement:
- Position 7: D
- Position 6: G
- Position 5: E
- Position 4: A
- Position 3: B
- Position 2: C
- Position 1: F
All clues are satisfied:
- Two boxes (F, C) are below B (position 3).
- One box (D) is above G (position 6).
- One box (E) is between G (position 6) and A (position 4).
- C (position 2) is immediately above F (position 1).
- E (position 5) is below D (position 7).
Calculate Boxes Below E
The box E is located at position 5.
The boxes located below E are at positions 1, 2, 3, and 4.
These boxes are F, C, B, and A, respectively.
Therefore, there are 4 boxes kept below E.
