EFGJ : NOPS :: BGDK : ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. KPMT.

The alphabet from A to Z takes the numerical position value from 1 to 26.

9 is added to the numerical position value of each alphabet.

EFGJ : NOPS

E (5) + 9 = 14 (N)

F (6) + 9 = 15 (O)

G (7) + 9 = 16 (P)

J (10) + 9 = 19 (S)

Similarly, for BGGK:

B (2) + 9 = 11 (K)

G (7) + 9 = 16 (P)

D (4) + 9 = 13 (M)

K (11) + 9 = 20 (T)

Hence, the correct answer is KPMT.
