First letter can be filled in 2 Ways ( As the question states that first letter has to be a vowel)
Fifth letter can be filled in 5 Ways ( As the question states that the last letter has to be a consonant)
Second letter can be filled in 7 Ways
Third letter can be filled in 7 Ways
Fourth letter can be filled in 7 Ways
So, Total number of ways = 2 Ways x 7 Ways x 7 ways x 7 ways x 5 ways = 3430
The answer: (D)
