Directions (9-10) : In each of the following
questions, a number series is established if the
positions of two out of the five marked numbers are
interchanged. The position of the first unmarked
number remains the same and it is the beginning of
the series. The earlier of the two marked numbers
whose positions are interchanged is the answer. For
example, if an interchange of number marked 1
and the number marked 4 is required to establish
the series, your answer is T. If it is not necessary to
interchange the position of the numbers to establish
the series, give 5 as your answer. Remember that
when the series is established, the numbers change
from left to right (i.e. from the unmarked number to
the last marked
number) in a specific order.
