Question : Directions: Which of the following terms will replace the question mark (?) in the given series?
XGR, TKN, POJ, LSF, ?, DAX
Option 1: HVB
Option 2: HWB
Option 3: GWB
Option 4: HWA
Correct Answer: HWB
Solution :
Given:
XGR, TKN, POJ, LSF, ?, DAX
Subtract and add 4 alternatively to the place values of the letters in the clusters.
XGR→X – 4 = T; G + 4 = K; R – 4 = N→TKN
TKN→T – 4 = P; K + 4 = O; N – 4 = J→POJ
POJ→P – 4 = L; O + 4 = S; J – 4 = F→LSF
LSF→L – 4 = H; S + 4 = W; F – 4 = B→HWB
HWB→H – 4 = D; W + 4 = A; B – 4 = X→DAX
So, HWB is the required missing term of the series. Hence, the second option is correct.
