Select the pair which follows the same pattern: AZY : CXW :: EVU : ?
GTS
HSR
GTR
FTS
GTS
Observe the first and third letters increase by 2 (+2), while the middle letter decreases by 2 (-2) across the analogy sequence.
Observe the first and third letters increase by 2 (+2), while the middle letter decreases by 2 (-2) across the analogy sequence.
Analyze the first sequence (AZY : CXW)
A (1) + 2 = C (3); Z (26) - 2 = X (24); Y (25) - 2 = W (23). The pattern is (+2, -2, -2).
Apply the pattern to the second sequence (EVU : ?)
E (5) + 2 = G (7); V (22) - 2 = T (20); U (21) - 2 = S (19). Result: GTS.
B: HSR is incorrect because it starts with H (E+3) and the pattern does not match; C: GTR is incorrect because the third letter R is -3 from U instead of -2; D: FTS is incorrect because the first letter F is +1 from E instead of +2.
A is correct because the pattern (+2, -2, -2) applied to EVU results in G (5+2=7), T (22-2=20), and S (21-2=19), which corresponds exactly to GTS.
Always map letters to their numerical positions (A=1, Z=26) immediately to avoid errors in counting shifts; this turns verbal patterns into simple arithmetic.
