Correct Answer: GJKI


Solution : Given:
EDIC, FGJF, ?, HMLL, IPMO

Add 1 to the positional values of the first and third letters and 3 to the positional values of the second and fourth letters of the previous term to obtain the next term in the series –
EDICE + 1 = F; D + 3 = G; I + 1 = J; C + 3 = F
FGJFF + 1 = G; G + 3 = J; J + 1 = K; F + 3 = I
GJKIG + 1 = H; J + 3 = M; K + 1 = L; I + 3 = L
HMLLH + 1 = I; M + 3 = P; L + 1 = M; L + 3 = O

So, GJKI is the missing term in the series. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
