Correct Answer: PJO
Solution :
Given:
DBK, GDL, JFM, MHN, ?
Add 3, 2, 1 to the positional values of the first, second, and third letters of the previous term to obtain the next term in the series –
DBK
→
D + 3 = G; B + 2 = D; K + 1 = L
GDL
→
G + 3 = J; D + 2 = F; L + 1 = M
JFM
→
J + 3 = M; F + 2 = H; M + 1 = N
MHN
→
M + 3 = P; H + 2 = J; N + 1 = O
So, PJO is the missing term in the series. Hence, the third option is correct.
