Solution :

First Jerome reach 20 floors up from the elevator.

Then, Jerome took the stairwell down 2 floors for a morning meeting.

So, currently he is on 20 - 2 = 18 floor.

Now, it is given that he took the elevator down 8 floors for lunch in the cafeteria.

Current position is 18 - 8 = 10 floor.

Finally, he walk 4 floors upstairs for after noon meeting.

Final position is 10 + 4 = 14 floor.

Therefore, in the end he is in 14 floor for the afternoon meeting.
