SSC GD Constable (English) - 23 Jan 2023 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q80

Which of the following terms will replace the question mark (?) in the given series?

KDN, JEO, GHQ, ?, UTX, LCC

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. BMT

Given series: KDN, JEO, GHQ, ?, UTX, LCC

The series follows this pattern:

KDN, JEO

K - 1 = J

D + 1 = E

N + 1 = O

JEO, GHQ

J - 3 = G

E + 3 = H

O + 2 = Q

GHQ,?

G - 5 = B

H + 5 = M

Q + 3 = T

BMT, UTX

B - 7 = U

M + 7 = T

T + 4 = X

UTX, LCC

U - 9 = L

T + 9 = C

X + 5 = C

So, the missing term in the series is BMT.
