If the first half of the English alphabet series is written in reverse order and no change is made in the second half, which letter is 11th to the left of the letter that is 7th from the end?
Answer: D
Writing the first half of the alphabet in reverse order and leaving the second half unchanged gives the series: M L K J I H G F E D C B A N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z. In this series, counting from the end, the 7th letter is T (Z, Y, X, W, V, U, T).
T is at position 20 from the left. The 11th letter to its left is at position 20 - 11 = 9, and the 9th letter of the new series is E. So the answer is E. The letters R, F and I are the letters at other positions in the series, which come from miscounting the 7th letter from the end or the 11 places.
