Student Accommodation - Logic Puzzles

Alex, Bret, Chris, Derek, Eddie, Fred, Greg, Harold, and John are nine students who live in a three storey building, with three rooms on each floor. A room in the West wing, one in the centre, and one in the East wing. If you look directly at the building, the left side is West and the right side is East. Each student is assigned exactly one room. Can you find where each of their rooms is:

Harold does not live on the bottom floor.
Fred lives directly above John and directly next to Bret (who lives in the West wing).
Eddie lives in the East wing and one floor higher than Fred.
Derek lives directly above Fred.
Greg lives directly above Chris.

Puzzle 810 



I travelled from London to Glasgow last week at 60 miles per hour, I had filled my petrol tank just before I left, so it was full with 25 gallons.

Unfortunately, my petrol tank sprang a leak immediately and I only managed to drive 300 miles before I ran out of petrol.

My car does 30 miles per gallon, how fast was I losing petrol through the hole?
