Explanation :
Katie took the elevator to the 4th floor to Randy’s apartment. Now she is on the 4th floor.
She met Randy and they walked down 2 flights of stairs to Chrissy’s apartment. Now they are on the 2nd floor.
Then Chrissy, Randy and Katie got in the elevator. They went up and passed 2 floors to meet Scott at his apartment. They passed 2 floors. That means they went past floors 3 and 4, so now they are on the 5th floor. That means Scott lives on the 5th floor.
Scott lives 1 floor below the top floor. If Scott lives on the 5th floor, 1 floor above that is the 6th floor. There are 6 floors in the building.
