Solutions

S1. Ans. (d)
Sol. Given series – 9 O 6 P & A 4 U S M # O 2 9 S A ? & # 2 Q 0 8 2 P @ 4 5 ! A 8 8 A $
Hence, there are four vowels which are immediately followed by a number.

S2. Ans. (c)
Sol. After operation – 9 O 6 P A 4 U S M O 2 9 S A 2 Q 0 8 2 P 4 5 A 8 8 A
Hence, 6th from the left end – 4

S3. Ans. (a)
Sol. After operation – O P & A U S M # O S A ? & # Q P @ ! A A $
So, 5th from the right end – @
