Correct Answer: HOVM
Solution :
Given:
NMTS, SGAK, XAHC, CUOU, ?
Alternately, add and subtract natural numbers starting from 5 to 8 to the place value of the letters to obtain the next term in the series –
NMTS→N + 5 = S; M – 6 = G; T + 7 = A; S – 8 = K→SGAK
SGAK→S + 5 = X; G – 6 = A; A + 7 = H; K – 8 = C→XAHC
XAHC→X + 5 = C; A – 6 = U; H + 7 = O; C – 8 = U→CUOU
CUOU→C + 5 = H; U – 6 = O; O + 7 = V; U – 8 = M→HOVM
So, HOVM is the missing term in the series. Hence, the
third option
is correct.
