I'd say cards 1 and 3 because we have to determine if the rule has been followed. We know those two have a letter or even number, if they don't have the same on the back then the rule is broken.

I say 2 cards because the questions stipulates card(s)

The thread title suggests it must be something other than 'A' but I don't know why or how if that is the case :)

First (A) and last (7) I think.

The card with A must have an even number on the reverse because A is a vowel
The card with K - Don't care it's not a vowel - the rule is not broken with an odd or even number
The card with 2 on - it doesn't matter as it can have vowel or consonant and the rule is still true
The card with 7 - Must be viewed to check the reverse is not a vowel - otherwise the rule is not followed

I'm not sure that the 2 needs turning over. It doesn't have to have a vowel there. The rule doesn't apply to other letters, I think.

Because any of them could have a vowel on the reverse side thus disproving rule

Doesn't 7 need turning over too in case it has a vowel on the other side- meaning the rule hasn't been applied ?

I don't think so as the only stipulation is that if a card has a vowel an even number must be on the other side.

There is nothing to stop an even number card having a vowel on the other side or a consonant having an even number on the other side

Well done - Ignore all I've said!
