Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. PMIOSTR
Given series: FLOWERS : OLFWSRE :: HOSTILE : SOHTELI :: IMPORTS : ?
The logic used here is: 1st and 3rd letters, 5th and 7th letters of the first term are interchanged with each other in the second term.
So,
| 1st | 2nd | 3rd | 4th | 5th | 6th | 7th |
| I | M | P | O | R | T | S |
| P | M | I | O | S | T | R |
IMPORTS : PMIOSTR
Hence, option 3 is the correct option.
