    Direction: A series is given with one/ two term missing. Choose the correct alternative from the given ones that will complete the series.
    F _ U 6 _ 9 I _ T 7 _ 20 _ 4 D 23

    A) 11, G, 16, K, U 

    B) 13, H, 15, L, M

    C) 17, J, 19, R, S   

    D) 21, R, 18 G, W

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    From the alternatives, it is clear that the series can be divided into 4 groups of four terms each\[-\]each group comprising of two letters and two numbers, occurring alternately. F _ U 6/_ 9 I _ / T 7 _20/_4 D 23 4D indicates that in a group, the number at the second place denotes the position of the letter at the third place, in the English alphabet. T 7 _ 20 indicates that in a group, the number at the fourth place denotes the position of the letter at the first place, in the English alphabet. Thus, putting \[A=1,\] \[B=2,...,\]\[Y=25,\] \[Z=26,\] we have 1st missing term U = 21, 3rd missing term = 7th letter = G, 5th missing term = 23rd letter = W.
