K 1 S % 8 4 O E Z 9 ? 4 ! X 6 P & 4 A 8 + 5 U 9 I / 3 8 B A 9 7
If a meaningful word is to be formed using the 1st, 3rd, 8th, 16th and 30th letters while moving from left to right, how many meaningful words thus can be formed? (Each letter to be used once only)
Options
- ANone
- BOne
- CTwo
- DThree
Correct answer
C. Two
Step-by-step solution
The given sequence:
K 1 S % 8 4 O E Z 9 ? 4 ! X 6 P & 4 A 8 + 5 U 9 I / 3 8 B A 9 7
Here, the 1st, 3rd, 8th, 16th and 30th letters are:
K, S, P, E and A respectively.
K& 1& S& % 8 4 O& E& Z 9 ? 4 ! X 6& P& & 4 A 8 + 5 U 9 I / 3 8 B& A& 9 7
At this point 2 meaningful words can be formed using K, S, P, E and A.
‘Speak’ which means ‘to say something in order to convey information or to express a feeling’.
‘Peaks’ which is the plural of the word ‘Peak’ which means ‘the pointed top of a mountain’.
Hence, the correct answer is option C.
K 1 S % 8 4 O E Z 9 ? 4 ! X 6 P & 4 A 8 + 5 U 9 I / 3 8 B A 9 7
Here, the 1st, 3rd, 8th, 16th and 30th letters are:
K, S, P, E and A respectively.
K& 1& S& % 8 4 O& E& Z 9 ? 4 ! X 6& P& & 4 A 8 + 5 U 9 I / 3 8 B& A& 9 7
At this point 2 meaningful words can be formed using K, S, P, E and A.
‘Speak’ which means ‘to say something in order to convey information or to express a feeling’.
‘Peaks’ which is the plural of the word ‘Peak’ which means ‘the pointed top of a mountain’.
Hence, the correct answer is option C.
