Option 1: ILMA
Option 2: KLLA
Option 3: QLPA
Option 4: KLMA
Correct Answer: KLLA
Solution : Given:
ELFA, GLHA, ILJA, ?
Each letter of a letter cluster follows a different pattern –
First letter of each letter cluster is alternative alphabet series, (E, G, I). Therefore, first letter of next letter cluster is K.
Second letter of each letter cluster is L.
Third letter of each letter cluster is again alternative alphabet series, (F, H, J). Therefore, third letter of next letter cluster is L.
Fourth letter of each letter cluster is A.
Therefore, the missing term is KLLA and the series is as follows –
ELFA, GLHA, ILJA, KLLA
Hence, second option is correct.
