I am confused as to why answer c is a better answer choice than a. They seem very similar, but is the answer c because there are a range of numbers opposed to using the same number (2) in answer choice a, or is there something bigger that I am missing?

    For starters AC 'A' has flawed reasoning. It goes something like this:

    X = 4; //4th floor
    Y; //undetermined floor
    B; // number of bedrooms

    if ( Y > X) ... then (B > 2)

    if (Y < X) ... then (B < 2)

    conclusion:
    therefore... if (Y == X) ... then (B == 2)

    We know absolutely nothing about the 4th floor from the information they gave us.

    Does that make sense?
