• D. 10

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 7

Arrange the letters of KNIFERS in alphabetical order:

K, N, I, F, E, R, S → E, F, I, K, N, R, S

Now identify the required letters:

• Second from the left → F

• Third from the right → N

  Count letters between F and N in the English alphabet:

F → G, H, I, J, K, L, M → N

So, letters in between = G, H, I, J, K, L, M → 7 letters

Final Answer:

7
