Solutions
S8. Ans. (e)
Sol. Given series – 2 8 & 4 % 6 7 $ # 9 * 2 1 % & 7 3 ? 5 4 * & 2 8 @
So, required sum = 7 + 9 + 1 + 7 + 3 + 5 = 32.
S10. Ans. (d)
Sol. Given series – 2 8 & 4 % 6 7 $ # 9 * 2 1 % & 7 3 ? 5 4 * & 2 8 @
6th element from the left end = 6. So, 13th element to the right of 6 = 5
Hence, 5 is the correct answer.
