Correct Option
The English alphabet is reordered according to the specified rules:
- The first four letters are written in opposite order (D C B A). This pattern continues for subsequent blocks of four letters (e.g., E F G H becomes H G F E).
- The letters Y and Z are interchanged (Z Y).
Applying these rules, the modified alphabetical series is constructed as follows:
D C B A (1-4)
H G F E (5-8)
L K J I (9-12)
P O N M (13-16)
T S R Q (17-20)
X W V U (21-24)
Z Y (25-26)
The question asks for the fourth letter to the right of the 13th letter. This position corresponds to the (13 + 4) = 17th letter in the modified sequence.
Counting the letters in the modified series up to the 17th position:
- D
- C
- B
- A
- H
- G
- F
- E
- L
- K
- J
- I
- P (13th letter)
- O
- N
- M
- T (17th letter)
Therefore, the 17th letter in the reordered alphabet is 'T'.
Incorrect Options:
-
N: In the modified series, 'N' is positioned as the 15th letter.
-
H: In the modified series, 'H' is positioned as the 5th letter.
-
I: In the modified series, 'I' is positioned as the 12th letter.
