If every third letter from the following English alphabet is dropped, which letter will be seventh to the right of eleventh letter from your right?
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
After dropping every third letter, we get
A B D E G H J K M N P Q S T V W Y Z
(11 - 7) = 4th from the right.
If the positions corresponding to the multiples of five in the following alphabet are replaced by symbols and that of multiples of seven by digits, how many letters will be left?
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
Positions corresponding to the multiples of five are
E, J, O , T, Y
and that of multiples of seven are
G, N and U.
Hence, the total number of remaining letters in the series
= 26 – 8 = 18
If second half of given sequence of alphabets is reversed then which of the following letter will be 9th letter to the right of 7th letter from your left ?
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
The changed sequence becomes
A B C D E F G H I J K L M Z Y X W V U T S R Q P O N
9th letter to the right of 7th letter from your left
= (9 + 7) = 16th from left
= (26 + 1 – 16) = 11th from right
So X is the required letter.
Directions : Study the following arrangement carefully and answer the questions given below:
J 1 # P 4 E K 3 A D $ R U M 9 N 5 I % T V * H 2 ÷ F 6 G 8 Q W
How many such numbers are there in the above arrangement, each of which is either immediately preceded by or immediately followed by a vowel or both?
We have to look for Vowel-Number and Number-Vowel sequences.
J 1 # P 4 E K 3 A D $ R U M 9 N 5 I % T V * H 2 ̧ F 6 G 8 Q W
4, 3 and 5 are the required numbers.

Directions : Study the following arrangement carefully and answer the questions given below:
J 1 # P 4 E K 3 A D $ R U M 9 N 5 I % T V * H 2 ÷ F 6 G 8 Q W
If the order of the last fifteen elements in the above arrangement is reversed, which of the following will be the ninth to the right of the eleventh element from the left end?
After the changing, the series becomes as follows;
J 1 # P 4 E K 3 A D $ R U M 9 N W Q 8 G 6 F ÷ 2 H * V T % 15
Now, ninth to the right of the eleventh element from the left
=(11 + 9) = 20th element from the left, i.e., G.

How many such consonants are there in the above arrangement, each of which is immediately preceded by a symbol but not immediately followed by either a number or a vowel?
We have to look for Symbol = Consonant – Consonant sequence and Symbol–Consonant–Symbol sequences.
J I # P 4 E K 3 A D $ R U M 9 N 51 % T V H 2 ̧ F 6 G 8 Q W
Only T is such a consonant

Four of the following five are alike in a certain way based on their position in the above arrangement and so form a group. Which is the one that does not belong to that group?
See the difference between each two successive element.
Note that the difference between two successive elements in (V) is not similar to others.
Directions : Study the following five numbers and answer the questions given below.
517 325 639 841 792
What will be the last digit of the third number from the top when they are arranged in descending order after reversing the position of the digits within each number?
Here, the given numbers are:
517 325 639 841 792
After reversing the numbers become as follows:
715 523 936 148 297
When arranged in descending order the numbers become as follows:
936 715 523 297 148
Now, the third number from top is 523.
Hence, the last digit of 523 is 3.
Directions : Study the following five numbers and answer the questions given below.
517 325 639 841 792
What will be the middle digit of the second lowest number after the position of only the first and the second digits within each number are interchanged?
After interchanging the first and the second digits, numbers become as follows;
157 235 369 481 972
When arranged in descending order the numbers become as follows;
972 481 369 235 157
Here, the second lowest number is 235.
Hence, middle digit of 235 is 3.
Directions : Study the following five numbers and answer the questions given below.
517 325 639 841 792
What will be the first digit of the second highest number after the position of only the second and the third digits within each number are interchanged?
If the positions of only the second and the third digits within each number are interchanged, the numbers become as follows.
571 352 693 814 729
Now, when the numbers are arranged in descending order, we get
814 729 693 571 352
Here, 729 is the second highest number
Hence, the first digit of 729 is 7.

If all the symbols of the above sequence are denoted by 7 and each letter is denoted by 5, then what will be the sum of all the elements of the sequence?
Number of total symbols = 6;
Number of total letters = 16.
Since, all the symbols are denoted by 7 and all letters are denoted by 5,
sum of the elements of the sequence
= 6 × 7 + 16 × 5 = 122
Directions : Study the following arrangement of letters/symbols and answer the questions given below:
D F J T $ # P R Z Q * C M A B @ H K L S + ?
If all the symbols from the above sequence are dropped, which letter will be seventh to the right of twelfth letter from the right?
When all the symbols are dropped the series becomes as follows:
D F J T P R Z Q C M A B H K L S
Now, seventh to the right of twelfth letter from the right
= (12 – 7) = 5th letter from the right, i.e., B.
Directions : Study the following arrangement of letters/symbols and answer the questions given below:
D F J T $ # P R Z Q * C M A B @ H K L S + ?
Which of the following is related to ‘FT’ in the same way as ‘DJ’ is related to ‘? S’ ?
Compare ‘DJ’ and ‘?S’.
‘D’ is the first element from left end of the series and ‘?’ is the first element from right end.
Similarly, ‘J’ and ‘S’ are third elements from left and right end respectively.
Hence, ‘FT’ is related to'+L'.
