Answer 2

The house number of Sri Lankan is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information, the following can be written:

Four houses:             1                    2                      3                      4

Color:                     Red                                       Green               Blue

Nationality:          Nepali          Pakistani            Indian         Sri Lankan

Beverage:              Water      Orange Juice         Milk

Pet:                         Cat              Dog                   Horse             Fox

Since the person who drinks water lives next to the person who drinks orange juice, it is only possible when Nepali drinks water.

Using various combinations given, it can be deduced that the Sri Lankan lives in house number 4.
