Question

MOR KMP IKN GIL ?

• A. EGK
• B. EHK
• C. EGJ
• D. EHJ

Answer 1

Answer:

C. EGJ

The next term in the series is EGJ.

Each letter in the triplet shifts backward by 2 positions ($-2$) in the English alphabet to form the next term:

• First Letters: M (13) $\rightarrow$ K (11) $\rightarrow$ I (9) $\rightarrow$ G (7) $\rightarrow$ E (5)

• Second Letters: O (15) $\rightarrow$ M (13) $\rightarrow$ K (11) $\rightarrow$ I (9) $\rightarrow$ G (7)

• Third Letters: R (18) $\rightarrow$ P (16) $\rightarrow$ N (14) $\rightarrow$ L (12) $\rightarrow$ J (10)
