(B) Observe the pattern of the first letters of each term:
$A (+2) \rightarrow C (+2) \rightarrow E (+2) \rightarrow G (+2) \rightarrow I$.
Thus,the first letter of the next term is $I$.
Observe the pattern of the second letters of each term:
$E (+2) \rightarrow G (+2) \rightarrow I (+2) \rightarrow K (+2) \rightarrow M$.
Thus,the second letter of the next term is $M$.
Combining these,the next term in the series is $IM$.
$A (+2) \rightarrow C (+2) \rightarrow E (+2) \rightarrow G (+2) \rightarrow I$.
Thus,the first letter of the next term is $I$.

Which of the following will come in place of the question mark $(?)$ in the order given below?
$AB, AB, CB, CB, CD, CD, ?$
$AB, AB, CB, CB, CD, CD, ?$
A
$EF$
B
$ED$
C
$EF$
D
$EF$
Solution
(A) The given series is $AB, AB, CB, CB, CD, CD, ?$.
Observe the pattern of the pairs:
$1$. The first letter of the first pair is $A$.
$2$. The first letter of the second pair is $C$.
$3$. The first letter of the third pair is $E$.
This shows the first letter follows the sequence $A, C, E, ...$ (skipping one letter).
$4$. The second letter of each pair is the letter immediately following the first letter (e.g.,$AB, CD, EF$).
Following this pattern,the next pair after $CD, CD$ should be $EF, EF$.
However,looking at the sequence structure $AB, AB, CB, CB, CD, CD$,the pattern is actually pairs of letters where the first letter increases by $2$ $(A \to C \to E)$ and the second letter is the successor of the first. Thus,the next term is $EF$.

What should come next in the following letter series?
$bac, bacd, bacde, bacdef, bacd?$
$bac, bacd, bacde, bacdef, bacd?$
A
$c$
B
$d$
C
$e$
D
$f$
Solution
(C) The given series is $bac, bacd, bacde, bacdef, \dots$
Observing the pattern,each term adds the next letter of the alphabet to the end of the previous term.
$1$. $bac$
$2$. $bac + d = bacd$
$3$. $bacd + e = bacde$
$4$. $bacde + f = bacdef$
Following this logic,the next term should be $bacdef + g = bacdefg$.
However,the question asks for the character that completes the pattern $bacd?$. Based on the sequence,the next term is $bacdefg$,so the missing letter in the sequence $bacd?$ is $e$ (as the term is $bacde$ before $bacdef$). If the question implies the next term in the sequence,it is $bacdefg$. Given the options provided,the pattern $bac, bacd, bacde, bacdef$ suggests the next term is $bacdefg$. If the question asks for the letter to complete the sequence $bacd?$,it refers to the term $bacde$,where the missing letter is $e$.

Solution
(B) To solve the series $aab....aa....bbb....aaa....bbba$,we look for a repeating pattern.
By observing the sequence,we can group the letters as follows:
$aa b / aa a bbb / aa a bbbb / a$.
However,a more consistent pattern is $aa b / aa a bbb / aa a bbbb / a$ which is not standard.
Let's re-examine the pattern: $aab / aabb / aaabb / aaabbb$.
If we fill the blanks with $baab$,the series becomes $aab(b) / aa(a)bb(b) / aaabb(b) / aaabb(a)$.
Actually,the most logical pattern is $aab / aabb / aaabb / aaabbb$.
Filling the blanks with $baab$ results in $aab(b) / aa(a)bb(b) / aaabb(b) / aaabb(a)$,which completes the sequence $aab / aabb / aaabb / aaabbb$.

Solution
(D) Let us analyze the pattern of the given options based on their positions in the sequence:
$1. J54: J \xrightarrow{+1} 5 \xrightarrow{-3} 4$
$2. 38M: 3 \xrightarrow{+1} 8 \xrightarrow{-3} M$
$3. 7WI: 7 \xrightarrow{+1} W \xrightarrow{-3} I$
$4. 8IQ: 8 \xrightarrow{+2} I \xrightarrow{-4} Q$
$5. 2Y9: 2 \xrightarrow{+1} Y \xrightarrow{-3} 9$
In options $A, B, C,$ and $E$,the pattern is $+1$ position then $-3$ positions. However,in option $D$ $(8IQ)$,the pattern is $+2$ positions then $-4$ positions.
Therefore,$8IQ$ does not belong to the group.

Original sequence: $R, 4, E, J, 5, T, 1, A, M, Q, 3, 8, N, I, K, 7, W, F, 6, D, 9, U, 2, Y, V$
New sequence after removing numbers: $R, E, J, T, A, M, Q, N, I, K, W, F, D, U, Y, V$

Solution
(D) To find the element that is the $6th$ to the left of the $11th$ from the left end,we use the rule: If both positions are from the same side (left),we subtract the positions.
Position $= 11 - 6 = 5th$ from the left end.
Counting from the left end: $1st=R, 2nd=4, 3rd=E, 4th=J, 5th=5$.
Therefore,the $5th$ element from the left is $5$.
Position $= 11 - 6 = 5th$ from the left end.
Counting from the left end: $1st=R, 2nd=4, 3rd=E, 4th=J, 5th=5$.
Therefore,the $5th$ element from the left is $5$.

- $E$ is followed by $R$ (Consonant),but $R$ is not a number.
- $A$ is followed by $9$ (Number),and $9$ is followed by $W$ (Consonant). This matches the pattern: $A-9-W$.

(D) We need to find consonants that satisfy two conditions:
$1$. Immediately followed by a number.
$2$. Not immediately preceded by a vowel (i.e.,preceded by a consonant or a symbol/start of the series).
Let's analyze the sequence: $B, 2, I, J, K, 4, 3, H, 5, E, R, P, 6, N, A, 9, W, 8, T, U, 1, V, D, 7, F$
- $K$: Preceded by $J$ (consonant),followed by $4$ (number). (Condition met)
- $P$: Preceded by $R$ (consonant),followed by $6$ (number). (Condition met)
- $D$: Preceded by $V$ (consonant),followed by $7$ (number). (Condition met)
Checking others:
- $B$: Preceded by nothing,followed by $2$. (Condition met)
- $H$: Preceded by $3$ (number),followed by $5$. (Does not meet condition $1$: $H$ is followed by $5$,but $H$ is not a consonant followed by a number in the sense of the pattern $C-N$ where $C$ is a consonant and $N$ is a number. Wait,$H$ is a consonant,$5$ is a number. Preceded by $3$. This fits.)
Let's re-evaluate: Consonant followed by Number,not preceded by Vowel.
$1$. $B$ (followed by $2$,not preceded by vowel) - Yes.
$2$. $K$ (followed by $4$,preceded by $J$ - consonant) - Yes.
$3$. $H$ (followed by $5$,preceded by $3$ - number) - Yes.
$4$. $P$ (followed by $6$,preceded by $R$ - consonant) - Yes.
$5$. $D$ (followed by $7$,preceded by $V$ - consonant) - Yes.
Total count is $5$,which is 'More than three'.
$1$. Immediately followed by a number.
$2$. Not immediately preceded by a vowel (i.e.,preceded by a consonant or a symbol/start of the series).
Let's analyze the sequence: $B, 2, I, J, K, 4, 3, H, 5, E, R, P, 6, N, A, 9, W, 8, T, U, 1, V, D, 7, F$
- $K$: Preceded by $J$ (consonant),followed by $4$ (number). (Condition met)
- $P$: Preceded by $R$ (consonant),followed by $6$ (number). (Condition met)
- $D$: Preceded by $V$ (consonant),followed by $7$ (number). (Condition met)
Checking others:
- $B$: Preceded by nothing,followed by $2$. (Condition met)
- $H$: Preceded by $3$ (number),followed by $5$. (Does not meet condition $1$: $H$ is followed by $5$,but $H$ is not a consonant followed by a number in the sense of the pattern $C-N$ where $C$ is a consonant and $N$ is a number. Wait,$H$ is a consonant,$5$ is a number. Preceded by $3$. This fits.)
Let's re-evaluate: Consonant followed by Number,not preceded by Vowel.

$3$. $H$ (followed by $5$,preceded by $3$ - number) - Yes.
$4$. $P$ (followed by $6$,preceded by $R$ - consonant) - Yes.
$5$. $D$ (followed by $7$,preceded by $V$ - consonant) - Yes.

$1$. For $J54$: $J$ is at position $4$,$5$ is at position $5$ $(+1)$,and $4$ is at position $2$ ($-3$ from $5$).
$2$. For $38M$: $3$ is at position $11$,$8$ is at position $12$ $(+1)$,and $M$ is at position $9$ ($-3$ from $12$).
$3$. For $7WI$: $7$ is at position $16$,$W$ is at position $17$ $(+1)$,and $I$ is at position $14$ ($-3$ from $17$).
$4$. For $8IQ$: $8$ is at position $12$,$I$ is at position $14$ $(+2)$,and $Q$ is at position $10$ ($-4$ from $14$).
$5$. For $2Y9$: (Assuming the pattern $2, Y, 9$ follows the same logic as others) $2$ is at position $23$,$Y$ is at position $24$ $(+1)$,and $9$ is at position $21$ ($-3$ from $24$).
Comparing these,the option $8IQ$ does not follow the $+1, -3$ pattern observed in the other groups. Therefore,$8IQ$ is the odd one out.

How many such vowels are there in the above arrangement,each of which is immediately preceded by a number and immediately followed by a consonant?
A

B
One
C

D
Three
Solution
(C) To find the vowels that are immediately preceded by a number and immediately followed by a consonant,we look for the pattern: $Number - Vowel - Consonant$.
$1$. Check the arrangement: $O, 4, E, J, 5, T, 1, A, M, Q, 3, 8, N, I, K, 7, W, F, 6, S, 9, U, 2, Y, X$
$2$. Identify vowels: $O, E, A, I, U$.
$3$. Analyze each vowel:
- $E$: Preceded by $4$ (number),followed by $J$ (consonant). This matches the pattern $(4, E, J)$.
- $A$: Preceded by $1$ (number),followed by $M$ (consonant). This matches the pattern $(1, A, M)$.
- $I$: Preceded by $N$ (consonant),followed by $K$ (consonant). Does not match.
- $U$: Preceded by $9$ (number),followed by $2$ (number). Does not match.
There are $2$ such vowels ($E$ and $A$).
Therefore,the correct option is $C$.
$1$. Check the arrangement: $O, 4, E, J, 5, T, 1, A, M, Q, 3, 8, N, I, K, 7, W, F, 6, S, 9, U, 2, Y, X$
$2$. Identify vowels: $O, E, A, I, U$.
$3$. Analyze each vowel:
- $E$: Preceded by $4$ (number),followed by $J$ (consonant). This matches the pattern $(4, E, J)$.
- $A$: Preceded by $1$ (number),followed by $M$ (consonant). This matches the pattern $(1, A, M)$.
- $I$: Preceded by $N$ (consonant),followed by $K$ (consonant). Does not match.
- $U$: Preceded by $9$ (number),followed by $2$ (number). Does not match.
There are $2$ such vowels ($E$ and $A$).
Therefore,the correct option is $C$.

Solution
(C) We need to find the pattern: $\text{Consonant} - \text{Number} - \text{Consonant}$.
Let us check the arrangement: $O, 4, E, J, 5, T, 1, A, M, Q, 3, 8, N, I, K, 7, W, F, 6, S, 9, U, 2, Y, X$.
$1$. $J, 5, T$: $J$ is a consonant,$5$ is a number,$T$ is a consonant. (Valid)
$2$. $K, 7, W$: $K$ is a consonant,$7$ is a number,$W$ is a consonant. (Valid)
$3$. $F, 6, S$: $F$ is a consonant,$6$ is a number,$S$ is a consonant. (Valid)
Other numbers like $4$ (preceded by vowel $O$),$1$ (preceded by consonant $T$ but followed by vowel $A$),$3$ (preceded by consonant $Q$ but followed by number $8$),$8$ (preceded by number $3$),$9$ (followed by vowel $U$),and $2$ (followed by vowel $Y$) do not satisfy the condition.
Thus,there are $3$ such numbers.

Which of the following is exactly in the middle between $A$ and $S$ in the above arrangement?
A
$I$
B
$N$
C
$K$
D
$8$
Solution
(A) First,identify the positions of $A$ and $S$ in the given sequence:
$O(1), 4(2), E(3), J(4), 5(5), T(6), 1(7), A(8), M(9), Q(10), 3(11), 8(12), N(13), I(14), K(15), 7(16), W(17), F(18), 6(19), S(20), 9(21), U(22), 2(23), Y(24), X(25)$.
$A$ is at the $8th$ position and $S$ is at the $20th$ position.
The number of elements between $A$ and $S$ is $20 - 8 - 1 = 11$.
The middle position is the $\frac{11+1}{2} = 6th$ element after $A$.
The $6th$ element after $A$ is the $(8 + 6) = 14th$ element in the sequence.
The $14th$ element is $I$.
$O(1), 4(2), E(3), J(4), 5(5), T(6), 1(7), A(8), M(9), Q(10), 3(11), 8(12), N(13), I(14), K(15), 7(16), W(17), F(18), 6(19), S(20), 9(21), U(22), 2(23), Y(24), X(25)$.
$A$ is at the $8th$ position and $S$ is at the $20th$ position.
The number of elements between $A$ and $S$ is $20 - 8 - 1 = 11$.
The middle position is the $\frac{11+1}{2} = 6th$ element after $A$.
The $6th$ element after $A$ is the $(8 + 6) = 14th$ element in the sequence.
The $14th$ element is $I$.

If all the numbers in the above arrangement are dropped,which of the following will be the ninth to the left of $S$?
A
$T$
B
$A$
C
$V$
D
$J$
Solution
(A) Step $1$: Remove all numbers from the given arrangement.
The original sequence is: $O, 4, E, J, 5, T, 1, A, M, Q, 3, 8, N, I, K, 7, W, F, 6, S, 9, U, 2, Y, X$.
After dropping the numbers $(4, 5, 1, 3, 8, 7, 6, 9, 2)$,the new sequence is: $O, E, J, T, A, M, Q, N, I, K, W, F, S, U, Y, X$.
Step $2$: Identify the position of $S$ in the new sequence.
The sequence is: $O(1), E(2), J(3), T(4), A(5), M(6), Q(7), N(8), I(9), K(10), W(11), F(12), S(13), U(14), Y(15), X(16)$.
Step $3$: Find the ninth element to the left of $S$.
Counting nine positions to the left from $S$ ($13^{th}$ position): $13 - 9 = 4$.
The $4^{th}$ element in the new sequence is $T$.
The original sequence is: $O, 4, E, J, 5, T, 1, A, M, Q, 3, 8, N, I, K, 7, W, F, 6, S, 9, U, 2, Y, X$.
After dropping the numbers $(4, 5, 1, 3, 8, 7, 6, 9, 2)$,the new sequence is: $O, E, J, T, A, M, Q, N, I, K, W, F, S, U, Y, X$.
Step $2$: Identify the position of $S$ in the new sequence.
The sequence is: $O(1), E(2), J(3), T(4), A(5), M(6), Q(7), N(8), I(9), K(10), W(11), F(12), S(13), U(14), Y(15), X(16)$.
Step $3$: Find the ninth element to the left of $S$.

Which of the following is the sixth to the left of the eleventh from the left end of the above arrangement?
A
$M$
B
$9$
C
$W$
D
$5$
Solution
(D) To find the element that is the sixth to the left of the eleventh from the left end,we use the rule: $(Left - Left) = (11 - 6) = 5th$ position from the left end.
Counting from the left end ($O$ is $1st$):
$1st: O$
$2nd: 4$
$3rd: E$
$4th: J$
$5th: 5$
Therefore,the $5th$ element from the left is $5$.
Counting from the left end ($O$ is $1st$):
$1st: O$
$2nd: 4$
$3rd: E$
$4th: J$
$5th: 5$
Therefore,the $5th$ element from the left is $5$.

Which of the following is the fourth to the right of the tenth from the right end of the above arrangement?
A
$8$
B
$S$
C
$I$
D
$T$
Solution
(B) To find the element that is the fourth to the right of the tenth from the right end,we can use the following logic:
When both positions are from the same side (right),we subtract the positions: $10 - 4 = 6$.
Therefore,we need to find the $6th$ element from the right end.
Counting from the right end $(X, Y, 2, U, 9, S)$:
The $1st$ is $X$,$2nd$ is $Y$,$3rd$ is $2$,$4th$ is $U$,$5th$ is $9$,and the $6th$ is $S$.
Thus,the correct option is $S$.

Solution
(C) To find the number of vowels followed by a symbol,we identify the vowels $(A, E, I, O, U)$ in the sequence and check the character immediately to their right.
$1$. $E$ is followed by $*$ (a symbol).
$2$. $A$ is followed by $@$ (a symbol).
$3$. $U$ is followed by $H$ (a consonant).
$4$. $I$ is followed by $T$ (a consonant).
The combinations are $(E, *)$ and $(A, @)$.
Thus,there are $2$ such vowels.
$1$. $E$ is followed by $*$ (a symbol).
$2$. $A$ is followed by $@$ (a symbol).
$3$. $U$ is followed by $H$ (a consonant).
$4$. $I$ is followed by $T$ (a consonant).
The combinations are $(E, *)$ and $(A, @)$.
Thus,there are $2$ such vowels.
