Question
Select the letter-cluster from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the following series.
BRF, EUH, HXJ, KAL, ?
- A. NMB
- B. NKH
- C. NHG
- D. NDN (Correct answer)
Correct Answer
Option D — NDN
Detailed Solution & Explanation
The correct answer is NDN.
Key Points
- Resolve each column: Position 1 B→E→H→K→N (+3).
- Position 2 R→U→X→A→D (+3, wrapping past Z).
- Position 3 F→H→J→L→N (+2).
- The next cluster is therefore N D N.
- The wrap in the middle column (X→A→D) is where errors creep in — convert to numbers (mod 26) so the wrap is mechanical rather than guessed.
