Correct Answer: SQR
Solution :
Given:
GEF, JHI, MKL, PNO, ?
Here, add 3 to the place value of each letter of the previous term to get the next term in the series.
GEF→G + 3 = J; E + 3 = H; F + 3 = I→JHI
JHI→J + 3 = M; H + 3 = K; I + 3 = L→MKL
MKL→M + 3 = P; K + 3 = N; L + 3 = O→PNO
PNO→P + 3 = S; N + 3 = Q; O + 3 = R→SQR
So, SQR is the missing term of the series. Hence, the second option is correct.
