Correct Answer: TWGK
Solution :
Given:
QZAE, RYCG, SXEI, ?, UVIM
Add 1, 2, and 2 to the positional values of the first, third, and fourth letters respectively, and subtract 1 from the positional value of the second letter to get the respective letters of the next term –
First letter:
Q + 1 = R; R + 1 = S; S + 1 = T; T + 1 = U
Second letter:
Z – 1 = Y; Y – 1 = X; X – 1 = W; W – 1 = V
Third letter:
A + 2 = C; C + 2 = E; E + 2 = G; G + 2 = I
Fourth letter:
E + 2 = G; G + 2 = I; I + 2 = K; K + 2 = M
TWGK is the missing term of the series. Hence, the third option is correct.
