Question

Twelve buildings are arranged in two parallel rows with 6 buildings each. Row 1 (A, B, C, D, E, F) faces east, and Row 2 (J, K, L, M, N, O) faces west, with each building facing the corresponding building in the opposite row. Each building has a unique number of offices ranging between 5 and 28. Given the following clues:

  • M is second to the right of the building with 15 offices.
  • The number of buildings to the right of M is one less than the number of buildings to the left of L.
  • L has a prime number of offices.
  • The building facing M is second to the left of the building immediately right of D.
  • F, which has 22 offices, is second from either end.
  • The difference between the offices of F and L is 5.
  • The number of buildings between D and F equals the number between J and L.
  • K, having 12 offices, is second to the left of J.
  • The difference between the offices of K and L equals the number of offices in B.
  • C is third to the right of B, and B does not face M.
  • C has 16 offices.
  • O has two offices less than N.
  • N has fewer offices than L.
  • The number of offices in E is a multiple of 11.
  • E is to the right of the building with 18 offices.
