If P is related to K and M is related to N, then how is R related in the sequence P, M, R, ?
I
J
H
G
I
Identify the reverse pair relationship (sum of positions = 27) for the given pairs P-K and M-N.
Identify the reverse pair relationship (sum of positions = 27) for the given pairs P-K and M-N.
Analyze given pairs
P (16) and K (11) sum to 27. M (13) and N (14) sum to 27. Both pairs are reverse alphabetical pairs.
Apply logic to R
R is the 18th letter of the alphabet. The reverse letter corresponds to 27 - 18 = 9. The 9th letter of the alphabet is I.
B: J is the 10th letter, which is the reverse of Q, not R. C: H is the 8th letter, which is the reverse of S, not R. D: G is the 7th letter, which is the reverse of T, not R.
A is correct because the sequence follows a pattern where each term is the reverse alphabetical pair, and the reverse of R (18) is I (9).
