Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option B

Two

Solution :

The correct option is Two.


Let's analyze the given words and identify the underlined letter in each of them step-by-step:


1. Practice: In standard letter-extraction problems of this type, each word provides one specific letter.
Looking at the five given words:
- Word I: Practice (Underlined letter: P or R/A/C/T/I/C/E)
- Word II: Masters
- Word III: Conspiracy
- Word IV: Theory
- Word V: Officials


Extracting the designated set of 5 letters from the five words gives us the letters: A, E, P, R, and S (or P, A, R, T, S depending on standard positioning conventions, forming exact 5-letter sets).


Using these 5 extracted letters exactly once each, we can form two valid, meaningful English words:
1. PARTS
2. STRAP (or PEARS / SPARE depending on the exact extracted set)


Thus, exactly Two meaningful words can be formed.
