Correct Answer: JFO
Solution :
Given:
BRG, DOI, FLK, HIM, ?
Add 2 to the first and third letters and subtract 3 from the second letter of the previous term to get the next term –
BRG→B + 2 = D; R – 3 = O; G + 2 = I
DOI→D + 2 = F; O – 3 = L; I + 2 = K
FLK→F + 2 = H; L – 3 = I; K + 2 = M
HIM→H + 2 = J; I – 3 = F; M + 2 = O
So, JFO is the missing term in the series. Hence, the second option is correct.
