Directions (11-15) : Study the following letter/number /symbol sequence and answer the questions following it.


6 7 # U V E ? 5 * L H 8 S A 9 T 4 $ F 3 % ∆ G D 8 M 2 X Z W


Q11. How many symbols are there in the series which are immediately preceded by a number and immediately followed by a letter?

One
Two
Three
Four
None of these
Solution:

We have to look for number – symbol-letter sequence in the given series.

Q12. If all the symbols are dropped from the series, which letter/number will be eleventh to the left of fifteenth letter/number from you left ?

2
V
6
Z
None of these
Solution:

11th element to the left of 15th element from the left ⇒ 4th element from the left after dropping all the Six symbols i.e. V.

Q13. If the position of the first and the sixteenth elements, the second and the seventeenth elements, and so on up to the eleventh and the twenty-sixth elements, are interchanged, which letter/number/ symbol will be seventh to the right of nineteenth letter/number/symbol from the right?

#
E
V
U
None of these
Solution:

7th to the right of 19th element from the right ⇒ 12th element from the right ⇒ (31-12) = 19th element from the left.

Now, 19th element from the left will be replaced by the fourth element (from the left) in the original series. Hence the required element is ‘U’

L is fourteenth from left
L is exactly between * and M

Both (a) and (c)

After rearranging the letters according to the questions, It is obvious that L is fourteenth element from the left and seventeenth from the right.
