Hint:

In grouped alphabet series, compare letters position-wise and find the common jump.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Concept:
This is an alphabet group series. We compare each position of the group separately.

Step 1: Compare first letters. \[ D,\ G,\ J,\ _ _ _ _ \] The letters increase by \(3\): \[ D+3=G \] \[ G+3=J \] \[ J+3=M \] So the first letter is \(M\).

Step 2: Compare second letters. \[ F,\ I,\ L,\ _ _ _ _ \] Again, the letters increase by \(3\): \[ F+3=I \] \[ I+3=L \] \[ L+3=O \] So the second letter is \(O\).

Step 3: Compare third letters. \[ I,\ L,\ O,\ _ _ _ _ \] Again, the letters increase by \(3\): \[ I+3=L \] \[ L+3=O \] \[ O+3=R \] So the third letter is \(R\).

Step 4: Compare fourth letters. \[ K,\ N,\ Q,\ _ _ _ _ \] Again, the letters increase by \(3\): \[ K+3=N \] \[ N+3=Q \] \[ Q+3=T \] So the fourth letter is \(T\).

Step 5: Final answer. \[ \boxed{\text{MORT}} \]
