Question : Directions: Which letter cluster will replace the question mark (?) to complete the given series?
PJVG, VBZB, BTDW, HLHR, ?
Option 1: NDLN
Option 2: MDLN
Option 3: MDLM
Option 4: NDLM
Correct Answer: NDLM
Solution :
Given:
PJVG, VBZB, BTDW, HLHR, ?
In the above–given series, add 6 and 4 to the first and third letters and subtract 8 and 5 from the second and fourth letters of the previous term to obtain the next term.
PJVG→P + 6 = V; J – 8 = B; V + 4 = Z; G – 5 = B→VBZB
VBZB→V + 6 = B; B – 8 = T; Z + 4 = D; B – 5 = W→BTDW
BTDW→B + 6 = H; T – 8 = L; D + 4 = H; W – 5 = R→HLHR
HLHR→H + 6 = N; L – 8 = D; H + 4 = L; R – 5 = M→NDLM
So, NDLM is the missing term in the series. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
