Seven boxes, L, M, N, D, E, F and G, are kept one over the other but not necessarily in the same order. Only two boxes are kept below F. M is kept third from the top. D is kept immediately above L. E is kept at some place below N but at some place above G. L is kept immediately above M. Which box is kept second from the bottom?
E
Number the positions 1 (bottom) to 7 (top). “Only two boxes are kept below F” places F at position 3.
M is third from the top, so M is at position 5.
L is immediately above M, so L is at position 6. D is immediately above L, so D is at position 7.
Positions 1, 2 and 4 remain for N, E and G. The clue “E is below N but above G” forces G < E < N, so G is at 1, E at 2 and N at 4.
Final order from top: 7-D, 6-L, 5-M, 4-N, 3-F, 2-E, 1-G.
The box second from the bottom is at position 2, which is E.
Hence, the box second from the bottom is E.
