Question

An apartment complex has several 9-story buildings, and every apartment in the complex has a unique number. On the first floor of one of the buildings, you see four apartments numbered 109, 110, 111, and 112. In which building and on which floor is apartment 207?

Answer 1

Apartment 207 is a second floor apartment in Building 2.

Explanation:

Since one building has four first floor apartments, then I'd think all buildings have 4 apartments per floor. Since one building has first floor apartment numbers 109, 110, 111, and 112, then I'd think there is a building with first floor apartment numbers 101, 102, 103, and 104, and another building with first floor apartment numbers 105, 106, 107, 108.

Building 1 First floor: 101, 102, 103, 104

Building 2 First floor: 105, 106, 107, 108

Building 3 First floor: 109, 110, 111, 112

Building 2 Second floor: 205, 206, 207, 208

Apartment 207 is a second floor apartment in Building 2.
