If it is possible to make a meaningful word with the third, fifth, ninth, and tenth letters of the word “PERSEVERANCE” which of the following will be the second letter from the right end of that newly formed word? If more than one such word can be made, give M as the answer and if no such word can be made, give Y as the answer.
M
This question is a word puzzle that involves identifying specific letters from the word "PERSEVERANCE" and forming a meaningful English word.
Identifying Key Letters
First, let's identify the letters at the specified positions in the word "PERSEVERANCE":
- The word is P E R S E V E R A N C E
- The positions are numbered 1 through 12.
- 3rd letter: R
- 5th letter: E
- 9th letter: A
- 10th letter: N
So, the letters we need to use are R, E, A, and N.
Forming Meaningful Words
The next step is to try and form a meaningful English word using these four letters (R, E, A, N). Let's rearrange them:
- EARN: This is a common English word meaning to acquire or receive (something, especially money) as a reward for one's work or services.
- NEAR: This is also a common English word, meaning at, to, or by a small distance from.
Other possible rearrangements like 'REAN', 'RANE', 'NARE', etc., are either not common English words or have very specific, less common meanings.
Applying the Rules
The question provides specific instructions on how to answer based on the number of words that can be formed:
- "If it is possible to make a meaningful word..." - Yes, we found "EARN" and "NEAR".
- "...which of the following will be the second letter from the right end of that newly formed word?" - This part is only relevant if exactly one word can be formed.
- "If more than one such word can be made, give M as the answer..." - Since we found two meaningful words ("EARN" and "NEAR"), this condition applies.
- "...and if no such word can be made, give Y as the answer." - This does not apply here.
Because we were able to form more than one meaningful word ("EARN", "NEAR") using the letters R, E, A, N derived from "PERSEVERANCE", the correct answer according to the rules is M.
Conclusion
The letters extracted are R, E, A, N. Multiple meaningful words, such as EARN and NEAR, can be formed using these letters. Therefore, as per the question's instructions, the answer is M.
