If in each of the following words, each letter is changed to the next letter in the English alphabetical order, how many words thus formed will have NO vowel? END MAT JAR BED
Answer: A
Only one word has no vowel after the change.
Move each letter to the next letter: END becomes FOE (contains O and E), MAT becomes NBU (contains U), JAR becomes KBS (no vowel) and BED becomes CFE (contains E). So only KBS has no vowel.
Two, three and four would need more of the words to lose all their vowels, which does not happen.
It is easiest to check each word separately. END has the vowel E in the original, and after shifting it becomes FOE, which has O and E. MAT becomes NBU, and U is a vowel. BED becomes CFE, which ends with E. Only JAR, which becomes KBS, has no vowel left.
