# N 3 P 2 J @ O 4 S G 6 & 5 7 Z H $ I 1 Q 8 % P

How many symbols are there in the above series which are immediately followed by an alphabet?

The correct option is Four.

To find the total number of symbols in the given series that are immediately followed by an alphabet (letter), let us first write down the given sequence clearly:

Series: # N 3 P 2 J @ O 4 S G 6 & 5 7 Z H $ I 1 Q 8 % P

We need to look for patterns of the form: [Symbol] → [Alphabet]

Let us analyze each symbol in the series one by one:

1. # is followed by N (an alphabet). This matches our pattern: # N.

2. @ is followed by O (an alphabet). This matches our pattern: @ O.

3. & is followed by 5 (a digit, not an alphabet). So, this does not count.

4. $ is followed by I (an alphabet). This matches our pattern: $ I.

5. % is followed by P (an alphabet). This matches our pattern: % P.

Therefore, the symbols immediately followed by an alphabet are: # N, @ O, $ I, and % P.

In total, there are Four such symbols.
