Q,W,Z,B B,H,K,M W,C,G,J M,S,V,X
Q,W,Z,B B,H,K,M W,C,G,J M,S,V,X
Correct answer
(C) W,C,G,J
Solution
Let's analyze the alphabetical positions and the differences between consecutive letters in each group:(A) Q,W,Z,B:
- Q(17) to W(23) =
- W(23) to Z(26) =
- Z(26) to B(2) = (since mod 26)
- B(2) to H(8) =
- H(8) to K(11) =
- K(11) to M(13) =
- W(23) to C(3) = (since mod 26)
- C(3) to G(7) =
- G(7) to J(10) =
- M(13) to S(19) =
- S(19) to V(22) =
- V(22) to X(24) =
