Cross out or mentally skip all symbols (, ^, *, @, #, &, \%), leaving only numbers. Then count 5th from the right end.
Step 1: Identify the Original Series
The given series from left to right is: 6 $ < 8 1┬│ * 2 @ 7 # 4 & 5% @ 9
Step 2: Drop all Symbols
Removing all symbols (, <, ^, *, @, #, &, \%) leaves only the numerical digits: 6, 8, 1, 3, 2, 7, 4, 5, 9.
Step 3: Count Fifth from the Right
Counting from the right end of the modified numeric series (9, 5, 4, 7, 2, 3, 1, 8, 6): 1st from right is 9, 2nd is 5, 3rd is 4, 4th is 7, and 5th from right is 2.
B: 7 is the 4th element from the right. C: 4 is the 3rd element from the right. D: 5 is the 2nd element from the right.
A is correct because when all symbols are dropped from the series, the resulting numeric series is 6 8 1 3 2 7 4 5 9, and counting 5th from the right end gives 2.
Always carefully verify whether the question asks to count from the left or right end after applying conditional drops (dropping symbols/vowels/consonants).
