Answer:

It is stucked on the 9th floor

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to know the floor on which the elevator is stucked.

The main lobby is the ground floor and has a value of 0 floor

Ascends four floors with 6 people from the lobby

It is now on floor 4

Ascends another two so it is now on floor 4 + 2 = 6

Ascends another 2, then descend descends 3

That will be 6 + 2 -3 = 5th floor

Ascends 8 more , then descend 2

That will be 5 + 8 -2 = 11

Descends another 2, making 11 - 2 = 9

It is stucked on floor 9

Kindly note, when it ascends, that is a positive value, when it descends, that is a negative
