Refer to the following letter series and answer the question. Counting to be done from left to right only. (Left) H Y B V F B J I N U H O V E X G V C T E R K B M (Right) How many such consonants are there each of which is immediately preceded by a vowel and also immediately followed by a vowel?
Three
The vowels are A, E, I, O and U; every other letter, including Y, is a consonant. Number the series from the left: 1 H, 2 Y, 3 B, 4 V, 5 F, 6 B, 7 J, 8 I, 9 N, 10 U, 11 H, 12 O, 13 V, 14 E, 15 X, 16 G, 17 V, 18 C, 19 T, 20 E, 21 R, 22 K, 23 B, 24 M.
The vowels stand at places 8 (I), 10 (U), 12 (O), 14 (E) and 20 (E). A qualifying consonant must sit between two vowels, so look at the letter right after each vowel.
I → N → U: N is a consonant with vowels on both sides, so it qualifies. U → H → O: H qualifies. O → V → E: V qualifies. E → X → G: X is followed by a consonant, so it fails. E → R → K: R is followed by a consonant, so it fails.
Therefore the qualifying consonants are N, H and V, i.e. 3 consonants.
Check: the pattern vowel–consonant–vowel occurs only in the stretch I N U H O V E (places 8 to 14); it contains exactly the three middle consonants N, H and V, so the count is 3.
Hence, Three.
