| Direction: A series is given with one/two term missing. Choose the correct alternative from the given once that will complete the series. |
A) C, 7, 4, E, 9
B) D, 8, 6, C, 7
C) E, 8, 7, D, 9
D) W, 8, 7, I, 6
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
From the alternatives, it is clear that the series can be divided into groups of 4 terms each?each group comprising of two numbers followed by two letters, as shown below 2 3 B _ / 6 _ F G / _ 5 D _ / 8 _ H I Clearly, the first number in each group represents the position of the letter at the third place, in the English alphabet. Thus, the third missing term is the number corresponding to the position of D in English alphabet i.e., 4, which is given in [a]. Substituting other terms of [a] into the series, we get \[\text{2 3 B }\underline{\text{C}}\text{ / 6 }\underline{\text{7}}\text{ F G / }\underline{\text{4}}\text{ 5 D E / 8 }\underline{\text{9}}\text{ H I}\] Observe that the second number in each group represents the position of the letter at the fourth place, in the English alphabet.
