B first and C last means three letters left to fill the middle three spaces, with no restrictions. The number of arrangements is 3!=6.

.

In this problem, the info about the consonants and vowels is not used: thin info is irrelevant, is not used and is not necessary.



The only relevant info is that of 5 different letters, two of them are fixed in their positions,

while 3 other letters can occupy any of remaining positions.
