There are different type alphanumeric series which include elements among alphabets, numbers or symbols.

Alphabet-Number Series → P 8 G 7 H K W 2 3 T Y U 6 1

Number-Symbol Series → 5 8 % 2 $ # 1 3 & 9 4 ! @ 1

Alphabet-Symbol Series → W & Q R $ T H % @ A M &

Number-Alphabet-Symbol Series → 2 E & % W Q 1 3 P # L @

Example:

P 6 @ # D O 4 5 P % * ! S 2 & 3 F Z +

The common terminology used in the ‘series’ questions are given below:

Here, ‘@’ is preceded by ‘#’ and succeeded (followed) by ‘6’.

The 5th element from the left end is ‘D’, and 5th element from the right end is ‘&’.

The 3rd number from the left end is ‘5’, and 2nd number from the right end is ‘2’.

The 2nd alphabet (letter) from the left end is ‘D’, and 3rd alphabet (letter) from the right end is ‘S’.

7) – D)	8) – A)	9) – A)	10) – E)

Solution 1: B)

T 5 @ E # W 2 S $ M B ^ 6 V & 3 U * 7 + C > 4 R 9 < A 8

In the given arrangement, “2” is the 2nd number from the left end. “4” is the 3rd number from the right end.

Sum = (2 + 4) = 6

Hence, option b.

Solution 2: B)

T 5 @ E # W 2 S $ M B ^ 6 V & 3 U * 7 + C > 4 R 9 < A 8

If all the letters are dropped from the given arrangement, the arrangement obtained is:

5 @ # 2 $ ^ 6 & 3 * 7 + > 4 9 < 8

The element, which is 3rd to the left of 2nd number from the right end, is “+”.

Hence, option b.

Solution 3: E)

T 5 @ E # W 2 S $ M B ^ 6 V & 3 U * 7 + C > 4 R 9 < A 8

There are eight letters between “E” and “A”.

Hence, option e.

Solution 4: B)

T 5 @ E # W 2 S $ M B ^ 6 V & 3 U * 7 + C > 4 R 9 < A 8

There are four such symbols in the given arrangement which are immediately followed by a number and immediately preceded by a letter.

Solution 5: A)

Given word,

TRADITION so, there is only one such pair i.e., NO.

Hence, option a.

Solution 6: C)

If we replace the even positioned letters with their respective succeeding letter then we would get the following word “UOIWESSJTZ”.

So, the letter, which is 7th from the left end is ‘S’.

Hence, option c.

Solution 7: D)

If arrange the letters in reverse alphabetical order then we would get the following word “ZUTRONNIIBAA”.

So, the letter, which is 8th from the right end is ‘O’.

Hence, option d.

Solution 8: A)

Given word: ANDROID

After interchanging: DIORDNA

So, the alphabet 2nd to the right of 3rd element from the left end is ‘D’.
