Solutions

Solutions (1-5):

S1. Ans. (a)
Sol. Given series – N X 6 % 5 P @ 4 O & 7 K # 4 @ 6 1 % 7 O 2 9 Z 7 $ 2 P 8 ! 5 & 3 A H 2
Hence, there are six such numbers are there which are immediately followed by a letter and immediately preceded by a symbol.

S2. Ans. (c)
Sol. Given series – N X 6 % 5 P @ 4 O & 7 K # 4 @ 6 1 % 7 O 2 9 Z 7 $ 2 P 8 ! 5 & 3 A H 2
Fourth number from the left end = 7
Fourth number from the right end = 8
So, required sum = 7 + 8 = 15

S3. Ans. (d)
Sol. Given series – N X 6 % 5 P @ 4 O & 7 K # 4 @ 6 1 % 7 O 2 9 Z 7 $ 2 P 8 ! 5 & 3 A H 2
So, & is the 5th symbol to the right of 22nd element from right end.

S4. Ans. (c)
Sol. Given series – N X 6 % 5 P @ 4 O & 7 K # 4 @ 6 1 % 7 O 2 9 Z 7 $ 2 P 8 ! 5 & 3 A H 2
10th element from left end = & and 10th element form right end = 2
So, % is the correct answer.

S5. Ans. (e)
Sol. Given series – N X 6 % 5 P @ 4 O & 7 K # 4 @ 6 1 % 7 O 2 9 Z 7 $ 2 P 8 ! 5 & 3 A H 2
Hence, there is such no vowel which are immediately followed by an even number and immediately preceded by a symbol.

Solutions (6-10):
S6. Ans. (a)
Sol. New series = 358 067 246 568 234 159

S7. Ans. (e)
Sol. New Series = 853 760 642 865 432 951

S8. Ans. (d)
Sol. New Series = 844 661 237 577 315 186

S9. Ans. (c)
Sol. Required product = 9*8 = 72.

S10. Ans. (d)
Sol. Total sum = 2874.
