Read the given information carefully and answer the related questions:
Seven persons – P, Q, R, S, T, U and V – live on seven different floors (but not necessarily in the same order) of a seven-floor building where the floors are numbered as 1 to 7 (from bottom to top respectively). Each of them has a different item – Glue, Paper, Iron, Scissors, Pens, Pencil, and Colour.
T lives on floor number 5. R lives on an even-number floor below floor 5. Two persons live between R and the one who has Glue. The one who has glue lives immediately above the one who has Scissors. The number of persons live above the one who has scissors is one more than the number of persons lives below the one who has Pens. One person was born between the one who has Pens and U. P lives on a prime number floor below T. Two persons live between P and the person who has Iron. The one who has Iron lives below V. As many persons live above V as after the one who has Colours.
