| Direction: A series is given with one/ two term missing. Choose the correct alternative from the given ones that will complete the series. |
A) E, 7, J, L
B) F, 8, M, K
C) G, 9, I, M
D) J, 9, V, N
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
From the alternatives, it is clear that the series can be divided into 4 groups of four terms each ? each group comprising of three letters and a number at the third place. D _ 6 E / G P _ H / J _ 12 K / M B 15 _ Studying the pairs 6E and 12K, we find that in each group, the number is one more than the number representing the position of the letter at the fourth place, in the English alphabet. Thus, putting \[A=1,\] \[B=2,....,\] \[Y=25,\] \[Z=26,\] we have 2nd missing term \[=H+1=8+1=9;\] 4th missing term \[=15-1=14\text{th letter}=N.\] Thus, the 2nd and 4th missing terms are 9 and N respectively, which are given only in [d].
