Answer 1

Answer:

B. IPNUW

Let’s solve it correctly.

Series:
[
_ NJOK LQMR SOTP QVR
]

We split into columns:

Column-wise arrangement

Position	Letters
1	_ , L , S , Q
2	N , Q , O , V
3	J , M , T , R
4	O , R , P , _
5	K , , , _

Step 1: Observe pattern in each column

Column 1:

_ → L → S → Q
Pattern fits: I → L → S → Q

So first blank = I

---

Column 2:

N → Q → O → V
Pattern fits: consistent alternating shifts
So no blank needed here.

---

Column 3:

J → M → T → R
Pattern consistent.

---

Column 4:

O → R → P → _
Pattern: +3, -2, +?
So missing = U

---

Column 5:

K → → → _
Pattern completes as:
K → P → N → U → W

So blanks are: P, N, U, W

---

Step 2: Combine missing letters in order

Blanks are:
1st row: I
2nd row: P
3rd row: N
4th row: U
5th row: W

Final Answer:

IPNUW
