JMP
JLN
KNQ
KMO
JMP
Analyze the pattern for each of the three letter positions independently; they follow a cyclic progression of jumps across the alphabet (+8 or -18).
Analyze the pattern for each of the three letter positions independently; they follow a cyclic progression of jumps across the alphabet (+8 or -18).
Analyze 1st Letters
D(4) + 8 = L(12), L(12) + 8 = T(20), T(20) + 8 = 28. Since 28-26 = 2, we get B. B(2) + 8 = 10, which corresponds to J.
Analyze 2nd Letters
G(7) + 8 = O(15), O(15) + 8 = W(23), W(23) + 8 = 31. Since 31-26 = 5, we get E. E(5) + 8 = 13, which corresponds to M.
Analyze 3rd Letters
J(10) + 8 = R(18), R(18) + 8 = Z(26), Z(26) + 8 = 34. Since 34-26 = 8, we get H. H(8) + 8 = 16, which corresponds to P.
B: JLN does not follow the +8 sequence. C: KNQ has different starting increments. D: KMO has different starting increments.
A is correct because each letter in the triplet increases by a value of 8 positions in the alphabet, consistently resulting in JMP.
For letter series questions, convert all letters to numbers 1-26 immediately; this turns complex visual patterns into simple arithmetic addition.
