View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (d)D.

Why this answer is correct

The logic follows here is :-

Given series :

Left side E 4 W 2 G 6 @ S 5 8 X A ! I M 9 & Q ^ J L # 7 * C $ G V % K Right side

 8th to the right of 14th from the left end → 14th from left end + 8th to right of 14th → 22nd from left end 

Clearly, 22nd from left end is '#'.

Thus, the correct answer is "#"$.

Question 97

RBI Assistant 2023• Reasoning Ability

One

Why this answer is correct

The logic follows here is :-

Given series :

Left side E 4 W 2 G 6 @ S 5 8 X A ! I M 9 & Q ^ J L # 7 * C $ G V % K Right side

Vowels that are which is immediately preceded by a symbol and immediately followed by a consonant is :

E 4 W 2 G 6 @ S 5 8 X A ! I M 9 & Q ^ J L # 7 * C $ G V % K

Hence, there is only one vowel which is immediately preceded by a symbol and immediately followed by a consonant.

Thus, the correct answer is "One".

Question 98

Answer: (e)E.

&^M

Why this answer is correct

The logic follows here is :-

Given series :

E 4 W 2 G 6 @ S 5 8 X A ! I M 9 & Q ^ J L # 7 * C $ G V % K

Here, the group formed is second element is +4 element of first element and third element is -2 of second element.

Hence, &^M does not belong to the group.

Thus, the answer is "&^M"$.

Question 99

!

Why this answer is correct

The logic follows here is :-

Given series :

E 4 W 2 G 6 @ S 5 8 X A ! I M 9 & Q ^ J L # 7 * C $ G V % K

If all numbers are dropped the series is :

E W G @ S X A ! I M & Q ^ J L # * C $ G V % K

Therefore, 8th from left end is '!'.

Thus, the correct answer is "!".

Question 100

Three

Why this answer is correct

The logic follows here is :-

Given series :

E 4 W 2 G 6 @ S 5 8 X A ! I M 9 & Q ^ J L # 7 * C $ G V % K

Symbols which are immediately preceded by a number and followed by an alphabet is :

E 4 W 2 G 6 @ S 5 8 X A ! I M 9 & Q ^ J L # 7 * C $ G V % K

Hence, there are three symbols which are immediately preceded by a number and followed by an alphabet.

Thus, the correct answer is "Three".
