Which of the following letter clusters should replace # and % so that the pattern and relationship followed between the letter-cluster pair on the left side of:: is the same as that on the right side of::?
#: DKR :: PCL: %
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. # = FHT, % = NFJ.
The logic used here is:
Given: #: DKR :: PCL: %
Option 1: # = BNQ, % = NFM
BNQ: DKR:: PCL: NFM
B - 2 = D
N - 3 = K
Q + 1 = R
P - 2 = N
C + 3 = F
This does not follow the logic.
Option 2: # = FHT, % = NFJ
FHT: DKR:: PCL: NFJ
F - 2 = D
H + 3 = K
T - 2 = R
P - 2 = N
C + 3 = F
L - 2 = J
This follows the logic.
Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.
