Identify each letter as a vowel or consonant first. Apply vowel rules (+1) and consonant rules (-1) systematically, then read from the specified end.
Step 1: Identify Vowels and Consonants in FRIENDLY
The word is F - R - I - E - N - D - L - Y. Vowels are I and E. Consonants are F, R, N, D, L, Y.
Step 2: Apply Transformation Rules
For each vowel (+1 letter in alphabet): I becomes J, E becomes F. For each consonant (-1 letter in alphabet): F тЖТ E, R тЖТ Q, N тЖТ M, D тЖТ C, L тЖТ K, Y тЖТ X. The new group is E Q J F MCKX.
Step 3: Determine Second Position from the Right
Reading from right to left in E Q J F M C K X: 1st from right is X, 2nd from right is K.
B: C is incorrect because C is the 6th letter from the right, not the 2nd. C: Q is incorrect as Q is derived from R (-1). D: J is incorrect as J is derived from I (+1).
A is correct because when applying the vowel (+1) and consonant (-1) rules to FRIENDLY, the new group of letters is EQJFMCKX, and counting from the right, the second letter is K.
Always verify whether the question asks for position from the left or right after letter transformation to avoid off-by-one errors.
