Drop all symbols first, then count the 7th element from the RIGHT end.
Filter the series
Remove all symbols (&, Ω, #, &, %, @, $, *, £). The remaining numbers are: 3, 9, 2, 4, 6, 8, 7, 1, 5.
Count from the right
Counting from the right: 1st=5, 2nd=1, 3rd=7, 4th=8, 5th=6, 6th=4, 7th=2.
B: 9 is 8th from right. C: 4 is 6th from right. D: 6 is 5th from right.
A is correct because when symbols are removed, the resulting sequence is 3, 9, 2, 4, 6, 8, 7, 1, 5. Counting 7 positions from the right, we arrive at the number 2.
Always verify the 'Left' vs 'Right' directionality requirement specified in the question before final counting.
