Step V is the last step of the above arrangement as the intended output of arrangement is obtained. As per the rules followed in the given steps, find the appropriate steps for the given input.
Input : neat bites 23 11 piles your 37 79 give 47
Which is the third element to the left of the seventh element from the left end in step V of the given arrangement?
Explanation:
The words are arranged in the alphabetical order and eliminate vowels from the word and numbers are arranged in the descending order. In step I, word is arranged in the left end and number is arranged in the right end. In step II, next word is arranged before the previous word and next number is arranged after the previous number. The operation goes on like this.
Input : neat bites 23 11 piles your 37 79 give 47
Step I : bts neat 23 11 piles your 37 give 47 83
Step II : gv bts neat 23 11 piles your 37 83 53
Step III : nt gv bts 23 11 piles your 83 53 41
Step IV : pls nt gv bts 11 your 83 53 41 29
Step V : yr pls nt gv bts 83 53 41 29 13
Hence, in step V seventh element from the left end is ‘53’. Third element to left of ‘53’ is ‘gv’.
