ADFI is related to CFHK in a certain way based on the English alphabetical order. In the same way, EHJM is related to GJLO. To which of the following is ILNQ related to, following the same logic?
Correct Answer :
KNPS
Solution :
The correct option is KNPS.
Let's analyze the pattern by determining the position of each letter in the English alphabet (A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, ..., Z = 26):
First Pair: ADFI : CFHK
A (1) + 2 = C (3)
D (4) + 2 = F (6)
F (6) + 2 = H (8)
I (9) + 2 = K (11)
Here, each letter in the first word is shifted forward by 2 positions (+2 pattern) to form the second word.
Second Pair: EHJM : GJLO
E (5) + 2 = G (7)
H (8) + 2 = J (10)
J (10) + 2 = L (12)
M (13) + 2 = O (15)
This confirms the same rule of shifting each letter forward by 2 positions (+2 pattern).
Applying the same rule to ILNQ:
I (9) + 2 = K (11)
L (12) + 2 = N (14)
N (14) + 2 = P (16)
Q (17) + 2 = S (19)
Therefore, ILNQ is related to KNPS.
