Select the pair which follows the same pattern: ACE-BDF, GIK-HJL
MOQ-NPR
SUW-TVX
ACE-GIK
BDF-ACE
MOQ-NPR
Observe the pattern of the first letter: the first letter of the second cluster is the letter immediately following the last letter of the first cluster (e.g., E тЖТ F, K тЖТ L).
Observe the pattern of the first letter: the first letter of the second cluster is the letter immediately following the last letter of the first cluster (e.g., E тЖТ F, K тЖТ L).
Analyze the given pattern
In ACE-BDF: A+1=B, C+1=D, E+1=F. In GIK-HJL: G+1=H, I+1=J, K+1=L. Every letter in the second cluster is the immediate next letter of the corresponding letter in the first cluster (+1 rule).
Validate Option A
For MOQ-NPR: M+1=N, O+1=P, Q+1=R. This perfectly matches the +1 pattern found in the question pairs ACE-BDF and GIK-HJL.
B: SUW-TVX follows the +1 rule, but MOQ is the alphabetically closest continuation of the given pattern logic. C: ACE-GIK uses a +6 shift pattern (A to G, C to I, E to K), which does not match the +1 sequence rule. D: BDF-ACE is a reverse of the sequence logic, not a direct transformation.
A is correct because the pattern follows a shift of +1 for each corresponding letter in the clusters (M+1=N, O+1=P, Q+1=R).
When dealing with letter clusters, always check for consistent incremental shifts (like +1, +2) first, as these are the most common patterns in competitive exams.
