Correct Answer: XZSK
Solution :
Given:
DJUC, NEGG, ?, HUEO, RPQS
Add 10, 12, and 4 to the place value of the first, third, and fourth letters respectively, and subtract 5 from the place value of the second letter of the previous term to get the next term in the given series –
DJUC→D + 10 = N; J – 5 = E; U + 12 = G; C + 4 = G→NEGG
NEGG→N + 10 = X; E – 5 = Z; G + 12 = S; G + 4 = S→XZSK
XZSK→X + 10 = H; Z – 5 = U, S + 12 = E; K + 4 = O→HUEO
HUEO→H + 10 = R; U – 5 = P; E + 12 = Q; O + 4 = S→RPQS
So, XZSK is the missing term in the series. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
