Question

Find the missing character from among the given alternatives.

• A. Q
• B. R
• C. S
• D. B
• E. T

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Concept: Alphabetical pattern in a matrix.
Step 1: Convert letters to positions.
\[ \begin{aligned} F=6,\ I=9,\ O=15
A=1,\ J=10,\ K=11
E=5,\ M=13,\ ? \end{aligned} \]
Step 2: Observe row-wise pattern.
Row 1: \[ 6 \rightarrow 9\ (+3),\quad 9 \rightarrow 15\ (+6) \] Row 2: \[ 1 \rightarrow 10\ (+9),\quad 10 \rightarrow 11\ (+1) \] Row 3: \[ 5 \rightarrow 13\ (+8),\quad 13 \rightarrow ?\ (+?) \]
Step 3: Identify pattern.
Differences follow pattern: \[ (+3, +6),\ (+9, +1),\ (+8, +5) \] Thus: \[ 13 + 5 = 18 \]
Step 4: Convert back to alphabet.
\[ 18 = R \]
Step 5: Final answer.
Thus, the missing letter is R.
