Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's analyze the pattern by tracking individual positions of letters in each triplet:
First letter of each triplet:
C(3)
+3
F(6)
+3
I(9)
+3
L(12)
Second letter of each triplet:
A(1)
+3
D(4)
+3
G(7)
+3
J(10)
Third letter of each triplet:
E(5)
+3
H(8)
+3
K(11)
+3
N(14)
Combining the missing letters, we get LJN.
