If the vowels are arranged in alphabetical increasing order from left to right and then the consonants are arranged in alphabetical increasing order from left to right in the word ALONGSIDE, which letter is 4th from the left in the new word?
- A
- I
- S
- O
Correct answer: O
Solution
The word ALONGSIDE has vowels A, O, I, E and consonants L, N, G, S, D. Arranging vowels in increasing order gives A, E, I, O and consonants in increasing order gives D, G, L, N, S. The new word becomes AEIODGLNS, so the 4th letter from the left is O.
