Thisquestionis based on the following letter number/symbol arrangement...
Understanding the Arrangement
The arrangement consists of a mix of numbers, letters, and symbols:
7 D 5 # A B 1 % K $ 4 E J F 3 2 H 1 @ L 6 Q U © 9 M T 8 W
Criteria for Selection
We need to find numbers that:
- Are immediately followed by a symbol.
- Are immediately preceded by a consonant.
Identifying Consonants and Symbols
1. Consonants in the arrangement are: D, K, F, H, L, Q, M, T, W.
2. Symbols present are: #, %, $, @, ©.
Analyzing Each Number
Now, let's examine each number in the arrangement:
- 5: Preceded by D (consonant), followed by # (symbol).
- 1: Preceded by B (not a consonant), followed by % (symbol).
- 4: Preceded by $ (not a consonant), followed by E (not a symbol).
- 3: Preceded by F (consonant), followed by 2 (not a symbol).
- 2: Preceded by 3 (not a consonant), followed by H (not a symbol).
- 1: Preceded by 2 (not a consonant), followed by @ (symbol).
- 6: Preceded by L (consonant), followed by Q (not a symbol).
- 9: Preceded by © (not a consonant), followed by M (not a symbol).
- 8: Preceded by T (consonant), followed by W (not a symbol).
Final Count
The valid numbers that meet both criteria are:
- 5 (D #)
- 1 (F @)
- 6 (L Q) - not valid as it is not followed by a symbol.
Thus, the valid numbers are 5 and 1, giving a total of two valid occurrences.
Conclusion
Hence, the answer is option D (Three) is incorrect; the correct count should be two valid occurrences.
Thisquestionis based on the following letter number/symbol arrangement...
1)D5#
2)B1%
3)H1@
these are preceded by constants and are followed by symbols. preceed means(before),followed means (after). Hope it helps
