There are so many different ways how to do it. I guess the best way is the one that matching your knowledge level, so you yourself can create it. When is done, then you can try different ways that maybe more advanced. 

That is the best way to learn, use the level of knowledge that you have to solve it then enhance your knowledge with training, weekly challenges. So there is no one best way. There is the best way for your level of knowledge, weather is will be simple formula, regex phrases, it does not matter.

Hey @hi2019 I agree with @OTrieger. Since you are looking to check length and replace string, I will provide a hint to use LEN and RegexReplace functions in formula tool to achieve this. Let us know how it goes.

Hope this helps and happy solving.
