Correct Answer: MXJY
Solution :
Given:
MHDM, MYLC, MPTS, MGBI, ?
M is constant as the first letter, subtract 9 from the positional value of the second letter and 10 from the positional value of the fourth letter and add 8 to the positional value of the third letter of the previous term to obtain the next term in the series –
MHDM
→
M; H – 9 = Y; D + 8 = L; M – 10 = C
MYLC
→
M; Y – 9 = P; L + 8 = T; C – 10 = S
MPTS
→
M; P – 9 = G; T + 8 = B; S – 10 = I
MGBI
→
M; G – 9 = X; B + 8 = J; I – 10 = Y
So, MXJY is the missing term in the series. Hence, the third option is correct.
