2. 5 & 6: The number 5 is preceded by 7 (Number) and followed by &. This does not fit.
3. & 6 %: The number 6 is preceded by the symbol & and followed by the symbol %. This is the 1st instance.
4. % 3 $: The number 3 is preceded by the symbol % and followed by the symbol $. This is the 2nd instance.
5. $ \# 9: This contains two symbols followed by a number. This does not fit.
6. # 9 @: The number 9 is preceded by the symbol \# and followed by the symbol @. This is the 3rd instance.
7. ) 7 +: The number 7 is preceded by the symbol ) and followed by the symbol +. This is the 4th instance.
