Given series: 5 6 3 2 4 8 8 8 9 2 6 6 5 8 8 3 4 3

Now, the pattern asked is: Total number of 8s which is not divisible by the number to its left but completely divisible by the number to its right.

So, the required pattern is: Not divisible of 8 by any Number - 8 - completely divisible number(8)

Then, 5 6 3 2 4 8 8 8 9 2 6 6 5 8 8 3 4 3

The pair 5 8 8 here 8 is not completely divisible by 5 and completely divisible by 8.

So, there are only '18s are there that are not divisible by the number to its left but completely divisible by the number to its right.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".
