Question

Refer to the following letter, symbol series and answer the question. Counting to be done from left to right only.

(Left) $ C $ @ M * Y @ * Z A £ & C $ % © F M % % $ (Right)

How many such symbols are there each of which is immediately preceded by a letter and also immediately followed by a letter?

This question was previously asked in
RRB Technician 2026 Grade 3 Question Paper (7-Oct-2026) (Shift 3)
The correct answer is

1

Number the elements from left to right: 1 $, 2 C, 3 $, 4 @, 5 M, 6 *, 7 Y, 8 @, 9 *, 10 Z, 11 A, 12 £, 13 &, 14 C, 15 $, 16 %, 17 ©, 18 F, 19 M, 20 %, 21 %, 22 $.

We need a symbol with a letter immediately before it and a letter immediately after it, i.e. the pattern Letter – Symbol – Letter.

Check each symbol: $ (3) is followed by @; @ (4) is preceded by $; @ (8) is followed by *; * (9) is preceded by @; £ (12) is followed by &; $ (15) is followed by %; © (17) is preceded by %; the rest are also not between two letters.

6*M (letter)Y (letter)

Only the * at position 6, between M and Y, satisfies the condition.

Hence, the answer is 1.
