F lives on 4th floor and he is 13 years old. A lives on an even-numbered floor. There are three floors in between C and D who lives on an even-numbered floor. H is 34 years old and lives on an odd-numbered floor. The one who is 28 years old lives immediately above the floor on which E lives. The one who lives on ground floor is 5 years older than the one who lives on 4th floor. D was born in 1996. B lives above the floor on which C lives. One person was born in 1962.

B lives above the floor on which C lives. Hence E lives on 1st floor, C lives on 2nd floor and born in 1990, B lives on 5th floor. B is 20 younger than the one who lives on 2nd floor. That means B was born in 2010 and E was born in 2000. One person was born in 1962. Hence A was born in 1962. The final arrangement is-
