Question : Directions: Which letter cluster will replace the question mark (?) to complete the given series?
PORK, NQPM, LSNO, JULQ, ?
Option 1: HXJS
Option 2: HXKS
Option 3: HWJS
Option 4: HWKR
Correct Answer: HWJS
Solution :
Given:
PORK, NQPM, LSNO, JULQ, ?
In the above-given series, subtract 2 from the place values of the first and third letters, and add 2 to the place values of the second and fourth letters to obtain the next letter cluster.
PORK→P – 2 = N; O + 2 = Q; R – 2 = P; K + 2 = M
NQPM→N – 2 = L; Q + 2 = S; P – 2 = N; M + 2 = O
LSNO→L – 2 = J; S + 2 = U; N – 2 = L; O + 2 = Q
JULQ→J – 2 = H; U + 2 = W; L – 2 = J; Q + 2 = S
So, HWJS is the missing term of the series. Hence, the third option is correct.
