Question (English)
Select the option that can replace the question mark (?) in the following series.
FM61, EK58, DI55, CG52, ?
- BE49 ✓ Correct
- CD44
- BF48
- CE46
The series follows a specific logical pattern for each component (First letter, Second letter, and Number):
- First Letter: Decreases by 1 position alphabetically.
F (6) $\xrightarrow{-1}$ E (5) $\xrightarrow{-1}$ D (4) $\xrightarrow{-1}$ C (3) $\xrightarrow{-1}$ B (2) - Second Letter: Decreases by 2 positions alphabetically.
M (13) $\xrightarrow{-2}$ K (11) $\xrightarrow{-2}$ I (9) $\xrightarrow{-2}$ G (7) $\xrightarrow{-2}$ E (5) - Number: Decreases by 3.
$61 \xrightarrow{-3} 58 \xrightarrow{-3} 55 \xrightarrow{-3} 52 \xrightarrow{-3} 49$
Combining all three parts, the next term is BE49.
प्रश्न (हिंदी)
उस विकल्प का चयन करें जो निम्नलिखित श्रृंखला में प्रश्न चिह्न (?) को प्रतिस्थापित कर सकता है।
FM61, EK58, DI55, CG52, ?
- BE49 ✓
- CD44
- BF48
- CE46
यह श्रृंखला तीन अलग-अलग पैटर्न का पालन करती है:
- पहला अक्षर: वर्णमाला के क्रम में 1 कम हो रहा है।
F (-1) → E (-1) → D (-1) → C (-1) → B - दूसरा अक्षर: वर्णमाला के क्रम में 2 कम हो रहा है।
M (-2) → K (-2) → I (-2) → G (-2) → E - संख्या: हर बार 3 घट रही है।
$61 - 3 = 58$, $58 - 3 = 55$, $55 - 3 = 52$, और $52 - 3 = 49$
अतः, सही उत्तर BE49 है।
