Question

Select the letter-cluster from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the following series:

WZWT, WVOH, WRGV, WNYJ, ?

1. A. WJQX (Correct answer)
2. B. WJQW
3. C. WHPX
4. D. WJPX

Correct Answer

Option A — WJQX

Detailed Solution & Explanation

The correct answer is WJQX.

Key Points

• Four columns, four rules.
• Position 1 is always W.
• Position 2: Z→V→R→N→J (−4).
• Position 3: W→O→G→Y→Q (−8, wrapping).
• Position 4: T→H→V→J→X (+14, wrapping).
• Assembling the next values gives W J Q X.
• With large or wrapping steps, map letters to 1–26 and take the step modulo 26; the wrong options differ only in the wrapped columns.
