Select the option that is related to the fourth letter-cluster in the same way as the first letter-cluster is related to the second letter-cluster.
TES : QCR :: ? : NFV
- AQIY
- BPHX
- CPHZ
- DQHW
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's look at the relationship between TES and QCR:
T(20)−3=Q(17)
E(5)−2=C(3)
S(19)−1=R(18)
The pattern of transformation is −3,−2,−1.
We need to find the cluster that transforms into NFV using the same pattern:
Let the cluster be X.
X
1
−3=N(14)⟹X
1
=14+3=17→Q
X
2
−2=F(6)⟹X
2
=6+2=8→H
X
3
−1=V(22)⟹X
3
=22+1=23→W
The missing cluster is QHW.
