Seven boxes, G, H, I, B, C, D and E, are kept one over the other, but not necessarily in the same order. Only two boxes are kept below I. H is kept at some place below B. Only one box is kept above D. Only one box is kept between D and C. G is kept immediately above E. How many boxes are kept between B and G?
Four
Number the positions 1 at the bottom to 7 at the top.
1. Only two boxes are kept below I, so I is at position 3.
2. Only one box is kept above D, so D is at position 6.
3. Only one box is kept between D and C. Two above D would need position 8, which does not exist, so C is at position 4.
4. The free positions are 1, 2, 5 and 7. G is kept immediately above E, and the only adjacent free pair is 1 and 2, so E is at 1 and G at 2.
5. H is kept below B, and the remaining positions are 5 and 7, so H is at 5 and B at 7.
| 7 | B |
| 6 | D |
| 5 | H |
| 4 | C |
| 3 | I |
| 2 | G |
| 1 | E |
Between B (position 7) and G (position 2) lie positions 3, 4, 5 and 6 - four boxes.
Hence, the answer is Four.
