Correct Answer: LN
Solution :
Given:
HK, ?, PQ, TT, XW
Add 3, and 4 to the positional value of the first and second letters respectively of the previous term to get the next term in the series.
First letter of the series→H + 4 = L; L + 4 = P; P + 4 = T; T + 4 = X
Second letter of the series→K + 3 = N; N + 3 = Q; Q + 3 = T; T + 3 = W
So, from the above, LN is the missing term of the series. Hence, the first option is correct.
