Correct Answer: ALWH
Solution :
Given:
ABCD, AXUR, ATMF, APET, ?
In the given series, A is constant in all the terms. Subtract 4, 8, and 12 from the place value of the second, third, and fourth letters of the previous term to obtain the next term –
ABCD
→
A; B – 4 = X; C – 8 = U; D – 12 = R
AXUR
→
A; X – 4 = T; U – 8 = M; R – 12 = F
ATMF
→
A; T – 4 = P; M – 8 = E; F – 12 = T
APET
→
A; P – 4 = L; E – 8 = W; T – 12 = H
So, ALWH is the missing term in the series. Hence, the second option is correct.
