Correct Answer: EWD
Solution :
Given:
QCT, NHP, KML, HRH, ?
Here, subtract 3 from the place value of the first letter, add 5 to the place value of the second letter, and subtract 4 from the place value of the third letter of the previous term to get the next term –
QCT→Q – 3 = N; C + 5 = H; T – 4 = P→NHP
NHP→N – 3 = K; H + 5 = M; P – 4 = L→KML
KML→K – 3 = H; M + 5 = R; L – 4 = H→HRH
HRH→H – 3 = E; R + 5 = W; H – 4 = D→EWD
So, EWD is the missing term in the series. Hence, the first option is correct.
