Question : Directions: Which of the following letter clusters should replace # and % so that the pattern and relationship followed between the letter-cluster pair on the left side of :: is the same as that on the right side of ::?
# : KNF :: QCV : %
Option 1: # = IPD, % = OET
Option 2: # = HPD, % = NFS
Option 3: # = MLH, % = OET
Option 4: # = HQC, % = NFS
Correct Answer: # = MLH, % = OET
Solution :
Given:
# : KNF :: QCV : %
Let's check the options –
First option:
# = IPD, % = OET
IPD : KNF→I + 2 = K; P – 2 = N; D + 2 = F
QCV : OET→Q – 2 = O; C + 2 = E; V – 2 = U
Second option:
# = HPD, % = NFS;
HPD : KNF→H + 3 = K; P – 2 = N; D + 2 = F
QCV : NFS→Q – 3 = N; C + 3 = F; V – 3 = S
Third option:
# = MLH, % = OET;
MLH : KNF→M – 2 = K; L + 2 = N; H – 2 = F
QCV : OET→Q – 2 = O; C + 2 = E; V – 2 = T
Fourth option:
# = HQC, % = NFS;
HQC : KNF→H + 3 = K; Q – 3 = N; C + 3 = F
QCV : NFS→Q – 3 = N, C + 3 = F; V – 3 = S
So, only the third option matches with the same pattern on both sides. Hence, the third option is correct.
