Analyze Symbol Series Logic Puzzle

The question asks us to count the number of symbols in the given series that meet two specific criteria: 1. The symbol must be immediately preceded by another symbol. 2. The symbol must be immediately followed by a letter. We need to examine the series from left to right.

Series Examination

The given series is: $A # G % C = + F * / D H : B - ? $ E ! I J$

Let's identify all the symbols and check the characters immediately before and after them:

Symbol Preceding Character Following Character Preceded by Symbol? Followed by Letter? Meets Criteria?
# A (Letter) G (Letter) No Yes No
% G (Letter) C (Letter) No Yes No
= C (Letter) + (Symbol) No No No
+ = (Symbol) F (Letter) Yes Yes Yes
* F (Letter) / (Symbol) No No No
/ * (Symbol) D (Letter) Yes Yes Yes
: H (Letter) B (Letter) No Yes No
- B (Letter) ? (Symbol) No No No
? - (Symbol) $ (Symbol) Yes No No
$ ? (Symbol) E (Letter) Yes Yes Yes
! E (Letter) I (Letter) No Yes No

Conclusion

By examining the series according to the given rules, we found three symbols ($+$, $/$, and $) that are immediately preceded by a symbol and immediately followed by a letter.

Therefore, the total count is THREE.
