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 ::?
# : CLQ :: NDK : %
Option 1: # = AJS, % = MAM
Option 2: # = AOO, % = PAM
Option 3: # = EIT, % = QBN
Option 4: # = DIS, % = PBN
Correct Answer: # = AOO, % = PAM
Solution :
Given:
# : CLQ :: NDK : %
Let's check the options –
First option:
# = AJS, % = MAM
AJS : CLQ→A + 2 = C; J + 2 = L; S – 2 = Q
NDK : MAM→N – 1 = M; D – 3 = A; K + 2 = M
Second option:
# = AOO, % = PAM
AOO : CLQ→A + 2 = C; O – 3 = L; O + 2 = Q
NDK : PAM→N + 2 = P; D – 3 = A; K + 2 = M
Third option:
# = EIT, % = QBN
EIT : CLQ→E – 2 = C; I + 3 = L; T – 3 = Q
NDK : QBN→N + 3 = Q; D – 2 = B; K + 3 = N
Fourth option:
# = DIS, % = PBN
DIS : CLQ→D – 1 = C; I + 3 = L; S – 2 = Q
NDK : PBN→N + 2 = P; D – 2 = B; K + 3 = N
So, a similar pattern in both pairs can be observed only in the second option. Hence, the second option is correct.
