MS246 : LR100 :: ? : KD400 :: TU846 : ST700

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

MS246 : LR100 :: ? : KD400 :: TU846 : ST700

Just as:

MS246 : LR100

M → L (-1)

S → R (-1)

246 - 100 = 146

And:

TU846 : ST700

T → S (-1)

U → T (-1)

846 - 700 = 146

Similarly:

? : KD400

K + 1 = L

D + 1 = E

400 + 146 = 546

Final Answer: LE546
