Q:

$\begin{matrix} C K & 16 & 9 & J R \\ O S & 24 & 19 & T X \\ K M & ? & ? & P V \end{matrix}$

A) 14,21	B) 21,14
C) 56,84	D) 84,56

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 21,14

Explanation:

Putting A=1, B=2, C=3,..., M=13,....,X=24,Y=25, Z=26, we have :

$J R = \frac{J + R}{2} + 2 = \frac{10 + 18}{2} + 2 = 16$

$C K = \frac{C + K}{2} + 2 = \frac{3 + 11}{2} + 2 = 9$

$T X = \frac{T + X}{2} + 2 = \frac{20 + 24}{2} + 2 = 24$

$O S = \frac{O + S}{2} + 2 = \frac{15 + 19}{2} + 2 = 19$

So, the missing numbers are :

21 and 14

Hence, the answer is (b).
