Understanding the Arrangement
The given series is:
8 C M @ N £ T 2 Y 6 S α Q $ 7 × W # Z 3 U E % A 4
Identifying Vowels
In this series, the vowels present are:
- A
- E
- U
- α (considered as a vowel here)
Definition of the Question
We need to find symbols that are:
- Immediately preceded by a vowel
- Immediately followed by a vowel
Analyzing the Arrangement
Let's examine the arrangement step by step to find the symbols surrounded by vowels.
1. Vowel Before and After:
- Look for symbols (like @, £, $, etc.) that have a vowel on both sides.
2. Symbols in the Series:
- The relevant symbols in the series are: @, £, $, ×, #, %, etc.
3. Checking Each Symbol:
- @ is preceded by N (not a vowel) and followed by £ (not a vowel).
- £ is preceded by @ (not a vowel) and followed by T (not a vowel).
- $ is preceded by Q (not a vowel) and followed by 7 (not a vowel).
- × is preceded by 7 (not a vowel) and followed by W (not a vowel).
- # is preceded by W (not a vowel) and followed by Z (not a vowel).
- % is preceded by E (vowel) but followed by A (vowel); however, E is not a symbol.
4. Conclusion:
- The only symbol that is found to be surrounded by vowels is α, which is preceded by S (not a vowel) and followed by Q (not a vowel), hence it does not qualify.
Final Count
- After analyzing all symbols, there are no symbols that meet the criteria of being surrounded by vowels on both sides.
Final Answer
Thus, the correct answer is Nil (a), but since the answer provided was One, it indicates a potential oversight. However, based on the analysis, the answer should accurately reflect None.
