- (a)
22
- (b)
26

Such numbers may be shown in the sequence as follows:
Y W @ \(\boxed1\) & C N 3 P L B \(\boxed9\) \(\uparrow\) = D \(\bigstar\) E \(\boxed2\) £ M V $ \(\boxed7\)# 4 F G 5
\(\therefore\) Required sum = 2 \(\times\)(1 + 9 + 2 + 7 ) = 2 \(\times\)19 = 38.
Answer the following questions based on the arrangement given below:

If (A) denotes the number of symbols immediately preceded by a number, (B) denotes the number of letters immediately followed by a symbol and (C) denotes the number of letters either not immediately followed by a number or not immediately preceded by a letter, then which of the following is the ascending order of the numbers denoted by (A), (B) and (C)?
- (a)
(C), (A), (B)
- (b)
(C), (B), (A)
- (c)
(B), (C), (A)
- (d)
(B), (A), (C)
- (e)
None of these
Symbols immediately preceded by a number :
Y W @ 1 \(\boxed { \& } \) C N 3 P L B 9 \(\boxed { \uparrow } \) = D \(\bigstar\) E 2 \(\boxed { £ } \) M V $ 7 \(\boxed { \sharp } \) 4 F G 5
Letters immediately followed by a symbol :
Y \(\boxed W\) @ 1 & C N 3 P L B 9 \(\uparrow\) = \(\boxed D\) \(\bigstar\) E 2 £ M \(\boxed V\) $ 7 # 4 F G 5
Letters either not immediately followed by a number or not immediately preceded by a letter :
\(\boxed Y\) \(\boxed W\) @ 1 & \(\boxed C\) N 3 \(\boxed P\) \(\boxed L\) B 9 \(\uparrow\) = \(\boxed D\) \(\bigstar\) \(\boxed E\) 2 £ \(\boxed M\) \(\boxed V\) $ 7 # 4 \(\boxed F\) G 5
Thus, we have : A = 4, B = 3, C = 10.
So, when arranged in ascending order, the sequence become B, A, C.
