Select the option that is related to the third term in the same way as the second term is related to the first term.
AE:IM::HL:?
- APT
- BTP
- CDS
- DFU
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's check the positional values of the letters in the first relation (AE:IM):
A=1, E=5
I=9, M=13
Let's find the difference between corresponding letters:
A
+8
I (1+8=9)
E
+8
M (5+8=13)
Applying the same pattern (position+8) to HL:
H=8
+8
16=P
L=12
+8
20=T
Thus, the related term is PT.
