SSC CHSL 2022 PYQ — Question 85

SSC CHSL - 24 May 2022 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q85

Which of the following letter-clusters will replace the question mark (?) in the given series to make it logically complete?

XUR, WTQ, VSP, URO, ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. TQN

The logic in the given series is:

XUR, WTQ, VSP, URO, ?

Consider the first letters only -

X - 1 = W, W - 1 = V, V - 1 = U, U - 1 = T

Similarly,

 U - 1 = T, T - 1 = S, S- 1 = R, R- 1 = Q

Similarly,

R - 1 = Q, Q - 1 = P, P -1 = O, O - 1 = N.

Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.
