Each of the letters in the word STUDENT is arranged in alphabetical order. How many letters are there in the English alphabetical series between the letter that is second from the left and the one that is fourth from the right in the new letter-cluster formed?
13
Step 1 – Arrange STUDENT alphabetically:
Letters of STUDENT = S, T, U, D, E, N, T → sorted = D, E, N, S, T, T, U (7 letters).
Step 2 – Identify positions:
2nd from the left → E (position 2).
4th from the right → position 7 − 4 + 1 = 4 → S.
Step 3 – Count letters between E and S in the alphabet:
F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R → 13 letters.
Hence, the correct answer is 13.
