Identify Vowels and Consonants in WEIGHT
In the word WEIGHT, the letters are W, E, I, G, H, T. The vowels are E and I, while W, G, H, and T are consonants.
Apply Transformation Rules
Vowels (+1 letter forward): E becomes F, I becomes J. Consonants (-1 letter backward): W becomes V, G becomes F, H becomes G, T becomes S.
Form New Group and Check Repetition
The new group of letters formed is V, F, J, F, G, S. The letter F appears twice, matching Option B.
A: J appears only once. C: V appears only once. D: G appears only once.
B is correct because the transformed word is V, F, J, F, G, S where the letter F is repeated twice.
Always list out each position carefully when transforming words to avoid missing letter shifts or repetition counts.
