Question : Directions: In the following question, which one set of letters when sequentially placed at the gaps in the given letter series shall complete it?
b_cd_d_bcc_cdb_
Option 1: dbbbc
Option 2: bddcb
Option 3: dccbd
Option 4: bcccb
Correct Answer: bddcb
Solution :
Given:
b_cd_d_bcc_cdb_
To fill the series we have to divide the series – b_cd_/d_bcc/_cdb_
Let's check the options –
First option:
dbbbc; b
d
cd
b
/d
b
bcc/
b
cdb
c
(No pattern has been found.)
Second option:
bddcb; b
b
cd
d
/d
d
bcc/
c
cdb
b
(The first two and the last two letters are the same in each set.)
Third option:
dccbd; b
d
cd
c
/d
c
bcc/
b
cdb
d
(No pattern has been found.)
Fourth option:
bcccb; b
b
cd
c
/d
c
bcc/
c
cdb
b
(No pattern has been found.)
So, the series becomes→bbcddddbccccdbb. Hence, the second option is correct.
