Refer to the following number series and answer the question that follows (all numbers are single-digit numbers only and counting to be done from left to right only).

(Left) 4 4 5 1 4 6 2 1 9 3 3 7 9 3 7 3 4 6 5 7 7 9 6 (Right)

How many such even digits are there, each of which is immediately preceded by an even digit and also immediately followed by an even digit?

AThree

BTwo

COne

DNone

Answer:

C. One

Read Explanation:

There is only 1 such even digit in the series.

We are looking for a pattern of three consecutive even digits (Even - Even - Even). Let's scan the series from left to right:

4 4 5 1 4 6 2 1 9 3 3 7 9 3 7 3 4 6 5 7 7 9 6

  • The only group of three consecutive even digits is 4, 6, 2.

  • Here, the digit 6 is an even digit that is immediately preceded by an even digit (4) and immediately followed by another even digit
