Question 100. If letters in the word UNIVERSAL are arranged in the alphabetical order and each letter is assigned numerical value equal to its serial number from the left in this rearranged order, what is the difference in the total of numerical values of vowels and that of consonants?
  1.    19
  2.    17
  3.    21
  4.    20
  5.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 17


The solution provided is correct. Let's break it down further for clarity:

  1. Arrange the letters in the word "UNIVERSAL" alphabetically:
    A, E, I, L, N, R, S, U, V

  2. Assign numerical values equal to the serial number from the left in this rearranged order:
    A = 1
    E = 2
    I = 3
    L = 4
    N = 5
    R = 6
    S = 7
    U = 8
    V = 9

  3. Calculate the sum of position numbers of vowels (A, E, I, U):
    Sum = 1 + 2 + 3 + 8 = 14

  4. Calculate the sum of position numbers of consonants (L, N, R, S, V):
    Sum = 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 9 = 31

  5. Find the difference between the total of numerical values of vowels and that of consonants:
    Difference = 31 (consonants) - 14 (vowels) = 17

So, the correct answer is (B) 17.
