The sequence of letters from the lowest value to the highest
value is TUSQRPV.
From (3), Q is the middle term.
___ ___ ___ _Q_ ___ ___ ___
From (4), there must be exactly 2 numbers between P and S
which gives two possible positions.
[1] ___ _S_ ___ _Q_ _P_ ___ ___
[2] ___ ___ _S_ _Q_ ___ _P_ ___
From (1), the number of letters between U and Q must be same
as the number of letters between S and R. Also, the number
of letters between them can be 1, 2 or 3.
Using trial and error, it can be found that there must be 2
letters between them. Also, it is possible only in option
[2] above.
[2] ___ _U_ _S_ _Q_ _R_ _P_ ___
From (2) V must be the highest and the remaining T must be
the lowest number.
_T_ _U_ _S_ _Q_ _R_ _P_ _V_
Thus, the sequence of letters from the lowest value to the
highest value is TUSQRPV.
