Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?t=15545)
The correct answer choice is (C)
If P is assigned to the middle floor with exactly two other departments (one of which must be T from the first rule, the other of which must be H or I), then the 3-3-1 distribution is in effect. Depending on the placement of L, either template is still possible. Drawing out these templates might seem like the best approach, but the distribution alone is powerful enough to answer this question.
In the 3-3-1, the following assignment of variables must occur:
Accordingly, F and S are assigned to the same floor, and answer choice (C) must be true, and is therefore correct.
