Which of the following letter-clusters should replace # and % so that the pattern and relationship followed between the letter-cluster pair on the left side of:: is the same as that on the right side of::?
The pattern follows a consistent reverse alphabetical jump. Each letter in the first cluster moves backward by 3 positions in the alphabet to form the second cluster (e.g., Z-3=W, W-3=T, P-3=M). Applying this logic to FCV results in F-3=C, C-3=Z, V-3=S, leading to the mapping of JGO for the final sequence.

Applying this logic to FCV results in F-3=C, C-3=Z, V-3=S, leading to the mapping of JGO for the final sequence.
This logical reasoning task relies on alphabetical positional coding, a fundamental concept in General Intelligence and Reasoning sections of competitive exams like SSC CGL and CHSL.
Logical reasoning questions require identifying the positional index of English alphabets (A=1, Z=26).
Constant shift patterns (addition or subtraction) are the most common logic in SSC-level exams.
Cyclical nature of alphabets is tested (e.g., C - 3 = Z).
In the alphabet sequence, if a subtraction operation goes below 'A', we wrap around to 'Z' (e.g., C(3) - 3 = 0, which is 26 or Z).
Option A is the correct choice based on the derived mathematical sequence.
Practice of reverse-alphabetical series is essential for rapid calculation in time-bound exams.
Option B, C, and D are incorrect because they fail to maintain the consistent -3 shift pattern across all three positions.
A is correct тАФ The pattern consistently subtracts 3 from the numerical position of each alphabet in the cluster.
Logical reasoning patterns like positional shifts are analogous to mathematical sequences in Arithmetic Progression; always check for constant differences to solve faster.
