Question : Directions: Which letter cluster will replace the question mark (?) to complete the given series?
FMQX, DJSA, ?, ZDWG, XAYJ
Option 1: BFUC
Option 2: BGDU
Option 3: BGUD
Option 4: BEDF
Correct Answer: BGUD
Solution :
Given:
FMQX, DJSA, ?, ZDWG, XAYJ
Subtract 2 and 3 from the place value of the first and second letters and add 2 and 3 to the place value of the third and fourth letters –
FMQX→F – 2 = D; M – 3 = J; Q + 2 = S; X + 3 = A→DJSA
DJSA→D – 2 = B; J – 3 = G; S + 2 = U; A + 3 = D→BGUD
BGUD→B – 2 = Z; G – 3 = D; U + 2 = W; D + 3 = G→ZDWG
ZDWG→Z – 2 = X; D – 3 = A; W + 2 = Y; G + 3 = J→XAYJ
So, the required missing term in the series is BGUD. Hence, the third option is correct.
