Correct Answer: PQR
Solution :
Given:
DAJ, GEL, JIN, MMP, ?
Add 3, 4, and 2 respectively to the positional value of the first, second and third letter of the previous term to obtain the next term in the series –
DAJ→D + 3 = G; A + 4 = E; J + 2 = L→GEL
GEL→G + 3 = J; E + 4 = I; L + 2 = N→JIN
JIN→J + 3 = M; I + 4 = M; N + 2 = P→MMP
MMP→M + 3 = P; M + 4 = Q; P + 2 = R→PQR
So, PQR is the missing term in the series. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
