Answer

13 floors


Explanation

The question is testing the number line concept.

Let the ground level be the origin, the floors above it be positive and  the underground floors be negative.

So. her is in the +9th floor

The car is at -4th floor

The floors between them  = 9 - -4

                                           = 9 + 4

                                           = 13 floors.
