The following question is based on the following alphabet series.
A B C D E F G H I J K L M
N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
Which letter will be the sixth to the right of the eleventh letter from the right end of the alphabet ?
Answer: C
Correct answer: V
Count from the right end first. Z is 1st, so the 11th from the right is at position
\[ 26 - 11 + 1 = 16 \rightarrow P \]
Six to the right of P is position 22:
\[ 16 + 6 = 22 \rightarrow V \]
The formula for counting from the right - 27 minus the count - avoids the off-by-one that catches most attempts at this kind of question.
