According to the question:
| Given series | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 5 | 4 | 6 | 6 | 7 | 8 |
|
Odd number → increased by two (+2) Even Number → decreased by two (-2) |
(+2) | (+2) | (-2) | (+2) | (-2) | (+2) | (-2) | (+2) | (+2) | (-2) | (-2) | (-2) | (+2) | (-2) |
| Resultant numbers | 4 | 5 | 2 | 7 | 4 | 3 | 0 | 5 | 7 | 2 | 4 | 4 | 9 | 6 |
| Number arranged in descending order | 9 | 7 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 5 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 2 | 0 |
Thus, the fifth digit from the left → (Left) 9 7 7 6 5 5 4 4 4 4 3 2 2 0 (Right) → 5
