OR, Shot cut method for these type of questions: **If in question both left word is using then take difference of both the numbers given in the question and find the alphabet on that position (difference) from the end of the series. Here, Difference = 14 - 5 = 9 On 9th position from the end (27 - 9 = 18) = R
