Directions: Read the following information carefully and answer the questions given below.
Eight persons A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H live in an eight floor building. Each of them likes a different chocolate viz Dairy Milk, Toblerone, Five Star, Munch, Hershey’s, Cadbury, Bar One and Chunky, but not necessarily in the same order. The lowermost floor is numbered 1 and the topmost floor is numbered 8.
There is only one floor between the one who likes Five Star and the one who likes Chunky. There are two floors between the one who likes Toblerone and C. F lives on an even numbered floor and likes Bar One. Neither A nor B likes Toblerone or Hershey’s. The one who likes Munch lives on floor no. 1. There are three floors between the floor on which B lives and the floor on which E lives. F lives above C, who does not live on first floor but likes Dairy Milk. The one who likes Five Star lives on the topmost floor. H does not like Five Star. G lives on the floor number which is between A and F. B lives above E and A. Only one person lives between the one who likes Hershey’s and the one who likes Toblerone.
How many people live between H and the person who likes Cadbury?
