Question : Directions: Which letter cluster will replace the question mark (?) to complete the given series?
VQSN, ?, ROOL, PNMK, NMKJ
Option 1: PQMN
Option 2: TPQM
Option 3: PTMQ
Option 4: TQRN
Correct Answer: TPQM
Solution :
Given:
VQSN, ?, ROOL, PNMK, NMKJ
Subtract 2 and 1 alternately to the place value of the letters of each term, to get the required missing term –
VQSN→V – 2 = T; Q – 1 = P; S – 2 = Q; N – 1 = M→TPQM
TPQM→T – 2 = R; P – 1 = O; Q – 2 = O; M – 1 = L→ROOL
ROOL→R – 2 = P; O – 1 = N; O – 2 = M; L – 1 = K→PNMK
PNMK→P – 2 = N; N – 1 = M; M – 2 = K; K – 1 = J→NMKJ
Therefore, the missing term in the series is TPQM. Hence, the second option is correct.
