Find the 4th Letter from the Left
Counting from the left in L B Q J F S J M F: 1st is L, 2nd is B, 3rd is Q, and 4th is J.
A: S is incorrect as it is the 6th letter. B: Q is incorrect as it is the 3rd letter. C: F is incorrect as it is the 5th letter.
D is correct because applying the consonant rule (-1) to K gives J, which is precisely the 4th letter from the left in the newly formed word group (L B Q J F S J M F).
