Q:

A F Z U G L T _ 

Find the next letter in the above given letter series?

A) K B) M
C) O D) Q
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) O

Explanation:

Given series is A F Z U G L T _

Starts with A

A + 5 letters = F

go to end of alphabet= Z

Z - 5 letters = U

from F go one more to G + 5 letters = L

from U go one back to U, T - 5 letters = O

 

Second Method ::

Change the letters to their corresponding number.

A=1

B=2

C=3

...

Z=26

A F Z U G L T _

1 6 26 21 7 12 20 ?

Look at the pattern: the 1st and 3rd numbers = 27, 1+26

the 2nd and 4th numbers = 27, 6+21

the 5th and 7th numbers = 27,

so the 6 and 8th would also equal 27.

27 - 12 = 15,

so the letter is O.

A) 4 B) 6
C) 8 D) None of the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 6

Explanation:

The measure of the third side of a triangle must lie between the sum and the difference of the other two sides. Using this fact along with the answer choices, we can eliminate the wrong answers. 

 

    • Option A  cannot be correct because 4 would not be the longest side.(sides 4, 5, and 4)   

 

    • Option B could be correct because the other two sides would be 3 and 4.  

 

    • Option C cannot be correct because this third side would be greater than the sum of the other two sides.
