BDHJ : CFIL :: EGJL : ?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Step 1: Find the pattern between BDHJ and CFIL
Convert letters to numbers:
- B=2, D=4, H=8, J=10 → C=3, F=6, I=9, L=12
Check the difference added to each letter:
- B(2) → C(3): +1
- D(4) → F(6): +2
- H(8) → I(9): +1
- J(10) → L(12): +2
Pattern: +1, +2, +1, +2 (applied to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th letters respectively)
Step 2: Apply the same pattern to EGJL
E=5, G=7, J=10, L=12
- E(5) + 1 = F(6)
- G(7) + 2 = I(9)
- J(10) + 1 = K(11)
- L(12) + 2 = N(14)
Result: F, I, K, N → FIKN
