Question

Select the letter-cluster from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the following series.
EBD, JGI, ?, TQS, YVX

A.

OKN

B.

OLN

C.

NLO

D.

NKO

Correct option is B

To solve this problem, let's analyze the pattern in the given series:
The series is: EBD, JGI, ?, TQS, YVX
1. First letters (E, J, ?, T, Y):
· E to J: The position difference is +5 (E is the 5th letter, J is the 10th letter).
· J to O: The position difference is +5 (J is the 10th letter, O is the 15th letter).
· O to T: The position difference is +5 (O is the 15th letter, T is the 20th letter)
· T to Y: The position difference is +5 (T is the 20th letter, Y is the 25th letter).
Logic : The pattern alternates between +5. So, the missing letter should follow the +5 pattern.
· J (10) + 5 = 15, which corresponds to the letter 'O'.
Similarly remaining letters following the same logic.
Second letter = B +5 = G, G + 5 = L, L + 5 = Q, Q + 5 = V
Third letter = D + 5 = I, I + 5 = N, N + 5 = S, S + 5 = X
Finally missing term is OLN.
