Directions: Seven different boxes A, B, C, D, E, F and G of different colours viz., Orange, Pink, Purple, Yellow, Blue, Red and Green are arranged one above the other. The box at the bottom of arrangement is numbered 1, the above box is numbered 2 and so on. B is immediately above E. More than two boxes are above the Orange box. The Yellow box is immediately below A. Only one box is between the Orange box and F. G is immediately above the Red box. Only one box is between B and the Pink box. Only two boxes are between the Pink and the Green box. Only two boxes are between the Yellow box and the Orange box. The Purple box is neither at the top nor at the bottom of the arrangement.B is above Pink box. C is immediately above F. Neither C nor G is a Yellow box. G is not a Orange box. Question: Which combination represents the position of C and its colour?
A
6-Green
B
6-Red
C
5-Purple
D
7-Blue
