Question

The position(s) of how many letters will remain unchanged if each of the letters in the word ALTERING is arranged in reverse English alphabetical order?

A.

Two

B.

Zero

C.

Three

D.

One

Correct option is B

Given: ALTERING
Original positions:
Word: A L T E R I N G
Position: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Arrange letters in reverse English alphabetical order
English letters in reverse: Z, Y, X, ..., A
So arrange ALTERING in reverse alphabetical order:
Letters in ALTERING = A, L, T, E, R, I, N, G
Sorted in reverse = T, R, N, L, I, G, E, A
There is zero letter which remain unchanged.
Thus, the correct option is (b) Zero.
