Refer to the following letter series and answer the question. Counting to be done from left to right only. (Left) G V C T H Y B E R K H V E V B M P U F B J I O X (Right) How many such vowels are there each of which is immediately preceded by a consonant and also immediately followed by a vowel?
One
The vowels are A, E, I, O and U; all other letters, including Y, are consonants. Number the series from the left: 1 G, 2 V, 3 C, 4 T, 5 H, 6 Y, 7 B, 8 E, 9 R, 10 K, 11 H, 12 V, 13 E, 14 V, 15 B, 16 M, 17 P, 18 U, 19 F, 20 B, 21 J, 22 I, 23 O, 24 X.
The vowels stand at places 8 (E), 13 (E), 18 (U), 22 (I) and 23 (O). For each vowel, look at the letter just before it (must be a consonant) and the letter just after it (must be a vowel).
| Vowel (place) | Preceded by | Followed by | Qualifies? |
| E (8) | B – consonant | R – consonant | No |
| E (13) | V – consonant | V – consonant | No |
| U (18) | P – consonant | F – consonant | No |
| I (22) | J – consonant | O – vowel | Yes |
| O (23) | I – vowel | X – consonant | No |
Therefore only the vowel I (place 22), sitting in the group J I O, satisfies both conditions, so the count is 1.
Check: the only two vowels standing side by side in the whole series are I and O (places 22 and 23); a qualifying vowel must be the first of such a pair with a consonant before it, and J before I gives exactly 1 such vowel.
Hence, One.
