Question

Select the letter-cluster from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the following series. OAZ,SDF,UGL?

• A. VIJ
• B. TFG
• C. TGH
• D. WJR

Answer 1

Answer:

D. WJR

The letter-cluster that replaces the question mark (?) is WJR.

We analyze the positional movement of each letter position in the alphabet (A = 1, B = 2, ..., Z = 26):

1st Letter Pattern (O → S → U → ?):

• O (15) $+ 4 \rightarrow$ S (19)

• S (19) $+ 2 \rightarrow$ U (21)

• U (21) $+ 2 \rightarrow$ W (23) (Pattern increases by $+4$, then alternates $+2$)

2nd Letter Pattern (A → D → G → ?):

• A (1) $+ 3 \rightarrow$ D (4)

• D (4) $+ 3 \rightarrow$ G (7)

• G (7) $+ 3 \rightarrow$ J (10)

3rd Letter Pattern (Z → F → L → ?):

• Z (26) $+ 6 \rightarrow$ F (6) (26 + 6 = 32 $\rightarrow$ 32 - 26 = 6)

• F (6) $+ 6 \rightarrow$ L (12)

• L (12) $+ 6 \rightarrow$ R (18)
