The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Identify the sixth month from March
We start counting from March:
March (1), April (2), May (3), June (4), July (5), August (6)
Therefore, the sixth month from March is September.
Step 2: Understand the capitalisation rule
The rule states: Starting from the letter `e` in the English alphabet, and taking every alternate letter thereafter, we write those letters in capital form. The English alphabet is:
a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z
Starting at `e` (capital), then `g` (capital), `i` (capital), `k` (capital), `m` (capital), `o` (capital), `q` (capital), `s` (capital), `u` (capital), `w` (capital), `y` (capital). The rest remain in lowercase.
Step 3: Apply rule to "September"
- S → capital (since `s` is in the capitalised list)
- e → capital (rule starts at `e`)
- p → lowercase (not in capitalised list)
- t → lowercase (not in capitalised list)
- e → capital
- m → capital
- b → lowercase
- e → capital
- r → lowercase
Thus, September becomes: SEptEMbEr.
Step 4: Verify with options
Comparing with the given options, this matches exactly with option (B).
