Question : Directions: A series is given with one term missing. Select the correct alternative from the given ones that will complete the series.
REV, UXD, XQL, AJT, ?
Option 1: DMR
Option 2: DRM
Option 3: RMQ
Option 4: DCB
Correct Answer: DCB
Solution :
Given:
REV, UXD, XQL, AJT, ?
Add 3 to the place value of the first letter, and subtract 7 and 18 from the place value of the second and third letters respectively of the previous term to get the next term in the series.
REV→R + 3 = U; E – 7 = X; D – 18 = D→UXD
UXD→U + 3 = X; X – 7 = Q; D – 18 = L→XQL
XQL→X + 3 = A; Q – 7 = J; L – 18 = T→AJT
AJT→A + 3 = D; J – 7 = C; T – 18 = B→DCB
So, DCB is the missing term of the series. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
