Given sequence: M E 5 P B 2 A 7 K N 9 T R U 4 6 I J D F 1 Q 3 W 8 V I S Z
To find the eighth letter/number to the left of the nineteenth letter/number from the left end, we need to follow the below steps:
Step 1: Count the number of letters/numbers from the left end to the nineteenth letter/number.
Counting from left end: M E 5 P B 2 A 7 K N 9 T R U 4 6 I J D F 1 Q 3 W 8 V I S Z
Position of the nineteenth letter/number from the left end = 19th position = U
Step 2: Calculate the position of the eighth letter/number to the left of the nineteenth letter/number.
To find the eighth letter/number to the left of the nineteenth letter/number, we need to subtract 8 from the position of the nineteenth letter/number.
Position of the nineteenth letter/number from the left end = 19th position = U
Position of the eighth letter/number to the left of the nineteenth letter/number = 19 - 8 = 11th position
Step 3: Identify the letter/number at the 11th position from the left end.
Counting from left end: M E 5 P B 2 A 7 K N 9 T R U 4 6 I J D F 1 Q 3 W 8 V I S Z
Letter/Number at the 11th position = D
Therefore, the eighth letter/number to the left of the nineteenth letter/number from the left end is 'D'. Hence, the correct answer is option 'D'.
