The position(s) of how many letters will remain unchanged if each of the letters in the word ORANGEY is arranged in the English alphabetical order?
Two
The original word is ORANGEY, with letters O, R, A, N, G, E, Y at positions 1 to 7.
Arranging the letters alphabetically gives A, E, G, N, O, R, Y.
Comparing position by position, only position 4 (N) and position 7 (Y) remain the same in both the original and the rearranged word.
Hence, exactly two letters' positions remain unchanged.
