Given series: Z, U, Q, ?, L
To find: Missing term in the series
Observations:
- The series is a combination of letters in reverse alphabetical order.
- The letters are placed at an interval of 4 positions from each other.
Method:
- We can find the missing term in the series by following the same pattern.
- Starting from L, we need to add 4 positions to it to get the next term.
- We repeat the process until we get the missing term.
Calculation:
- Starting from L, adding 4 positions, we get H.
- Adding 4 positions to H, we get D.
Therefore, the missing term in the series is D.
Hence, the correct answer is option (d) D.

Given that 4a = 5b
∴ a/b = 5/4
Also 7b = 9c
∴ b/c = 9/7
∴ a : b = 5 : 4 = (5 x 9) : (4 x 9) = 45 : 36
and b : c = 9 : 7 = (9 x 4) : (7 x 4) = 36 : 28
∴ a : b : c = 45 : 36 : 28
∴ a/b = 5/4
Also 7b = 9c
∴ b/c = 9/7
∴ a : b = 5 : 4 = (5 x 9) : (4 x 9) = 45 : 36
and b : c = 9 : 7 = (9 x 4) : (7 x 4) = 36 : 28
∴ a : b : c = 45 : 36 : 28
a : b = c : d = e : f = 1 : 2 then (3a + 5c + 7e) : (3b + 5d + 7f) = ?- a)1 : 2

The given letter series is U, O, I, ?, A. We need to find the missing term.
Pattern:
When we look at the given series, we can observe the following pattern:
- The series is a combination of vowels and consonants.
- The vowels are placed alternatively in descending order of their alphabetical position.
- The consonants are placed alternatively in ascending order of their alphabetical position.
Using this pattern, we can find the missing term.
Solution:
- The first vowel in the series is U, which is the 21st letter of the English alphabet.
- The next vowel should be placed two positions before U in the alphabet.
- Therefore, the next vowel should be S, which is the 19th letter of the alphabet.
- The first consonant in the series is O, which is the 15th letter of the alphabet.
- The next consonant should be placed two positions after O in the alphabet.
- Therefore, the next consonant should be Q, which is the 17th letter of the alphabet.
- The next vowel should be placed two positions before S in the alphabet.
- Therefore, the missing term should be E, which is the 5th letter of the alphabet.
- The last letter in the series is A, which is the 1st letter of the alphabet.
Therefore, the missing term in the series is E, which is option (a).

The first, fourth and seventh letters are in alphabetical order. So, tenth letter would be the letter after C i.e. D.
Also the second and third letter are alternate and in reverse order and so are the fifth and sixth letters and the eighth and ninth letters.

Aarav Sharma answered |
Given information:
- Ratio between present ages of Punit and Suresh is 4 : 5
- After 7 years, Punit's age will be 31 years
Let's assume the present ages of Punit and Suresh to be 4x and 5x respectively.
After 7 years, Punit's age will be 4x + 7 = 31
Solving for x, we get x = 6.
Therefore, Punit's present age = 4x = 24, and Suresh's present age = 5x = 30.
To find Suresh's age 4 years ago, we subtract 4 from his present age:
30 - 4 = 26
Therefore, the correct answer is option E, "None of these".

EduRev SSC CGL answered |
We can break it down by observing the pattern in each letter:
- First letters (s, r, q, p, ?):
- s (19th letter) to r (18th letter): -1 position
- r (18th letter) to q (17th letter): -1 position
- q (17th letter) to p (16th letter): -1 position
- Continuing the pattern, p (16th letter) to the next letter would be o (15th letter).
- Second letters (h, i, j, k, ?):
- h (8th letter) to i (9th letter): +1 position
- i (9th letter) to j (10th letter): +1 position
- j (10th letter) to k (11th letter): +1 position
- Continuing the pattern, k (11th letter) to the next letter would be l (12th letter).
- Third letters (g, f, e, d, ?):
- g (7th letter) to f (6th letter): -1 position
- f (6th letter) to e (5th letter): -1 position
- e (5th letter) to d (4th letter): -1 position
- Continuing the pattern, d (4th letter) to the next letter would be c (3rd letter).
Thus, the missing term is olc.
The correct answer is B: olc.

Smita rane answered |
The given letter series is formed by alternating between the letters in the English alphabet. The first term 'd' is followed by the fourth letter 'e', then the sixth letter 'f', and so on. Similarly, the second term 'j' is followed by the ninth letter 'i', then the eleventh letter 'h', and so on.
To find the missing term, we need to continue the same pattern of alternating between the letters in the English alphabet. The next letter after 'm' is 'n', so the missing term should be the thirteenth letter after 'n', which is 'r'.
Therefore, the missing term in the given letter series is 'prq', which is option (c).

Let coins are
1 ruppe coin = 8X.
Value of 1 ruppe coin = 8X.
50 paise coins = 9X
Value of 50 paise coin = 9X/2
25 paise coins = 11X
Value of 25 paise coins = 11X/4.
Total Ruppes = 366
8X + 9X/2 + 11X/4 = 366
61X/4 = 366
61X = 1464
X = 24.
Number of 25p paise coin = 11X = 11* 24 = 264.
1 ruppe coin = 8X.
Value of 1 ruppe coin = 8X.
50 paise coins = 9X
Value of 50 paise coin = 9X/2
25 paise coins = 11X
Value of 25 paise coins = 11X/4.
Total Ruppes = 366
8X + 9X/2 + 11X/4 = 366
61X/4 = 366
61X = 1464
X = 24.
Number of 25p paise coin = 11X = 11* 24 = 264.

Dia Mehta answered |
The correct option is C.
a/3 = b/5 = c/7 = p
a = 3p
b = 5p
c = 7p
=> a+b+c/b => 3p+5p+7p/5p => 15p/5p
=> 3/1
The answer is 3
a/3 = b/5 = c/7 = p
a = 3p
b = 5p
c = 7p
=> a+b+c/b => 3p+5p+7p/5p => 15p/5p
=> 3/1
The answer is 3

We can look at the first and second letters separately:
-
First letter pattern (B, C, ?, H, L):
- B to C: +1 position
- C to ?: +2 positions
- H to L: +4 positions
- The missing letter should be E (C + 2 = E).
-
Second letter pattern (F, H, ?, O, T):
- F to H: +2 positions
- H to ?: +3 positions
- O to T: +5 positions
- The missing letter should be K (H + 3 = K).
Thus, the missing term is EK.
The correct answer is C: EK.

Given series: Q R M ? F D ?
To find: Missing terms in the series
Solution:
The given series consists of alphabets.
Observations:
- The letters are in descending order of their positions in the English alphabet.
- The difference between consecutive letters is not constant.
The missing letters can be found by analyzing the difference between their positions in the alphabet.
Calculation:
- Position of Q in the alphabet = 17
- Position of R in the alphabet = 18
- Difference = 1
- Position of M in the alphabet = 13
- Position of F in the alphabet = 6
- Difference = 7
- The missing letter between M and F should have a position in the alphabet = 13 - 7 = 6
- The letter with a position of 6 in the alphabet is C
- Position of D in the alphabet = 4
- The missing letter between F and D should have a position in the alphabet = 4 + 7 = 11
- The letter with a position of 11 in the alphabet is K
Therefore, the missing terms in the series are C and K.
Verification:
The series becomes: Q R M C F D K
- The difference between Q and R is 1
- The difference between R and M is 5
- The difference between M and C is 7
- The difference between C and F is 3
- The difference between F and D is 7
- The difference between D and K is 6
Conclusion:
The missing terms in the series are C and K, which are present in option D. Hence, the answer is option D.

We can break this down into two alternating patterns:
- First pattern (Z, X, T, P, N, ?):
- Z (26th letter), X (24th letter), T (20th letter), P (16th letter), N (14th letter).
- The pattern is decreasing by 2, 4, 4, 2 alternately.
- After N (14th), subtract 4 to get J (10th letter).
- Second pattern (Y, U, S, O, K, ?):
- Y (25th letter), U (21st letter), S (19th letter), O (15th letter), K (11th letter).
- The pattern is decreasing by 4 each time.
- After K (11th), subtract 4 to get G (7th letter).
Thus, the missing terms are J and G.
The correct answer is D: J, G.

We can see a clear pattern where letters are decreasing by 1 or 2 positions alternately in the alphabet:
- W (23rd letter) to V (22nd letter): -1 position.
- V (22nd letter) to T (20th letter): -2 positions.
- T (20th letter) to S (19th letter): -1 position.
- S (19th letter) to Q (17th letter): -2 positions.
- Q (17th letter) to P (16th letter): -1 position.
- P (16th letter) to N (14th letter): -2 positions.
- N (14th letter) to M (13th letter): -1 position.
Following the same alternating pattern:
- From M (13th letter), subtract 2 positions, which gives K (11th letter).
- From K (11th letter), subtract 1 position, which gives J (10th letter).
Thus, the missing terms are K and J.
Since none of the provided options match this, the correct answer is D: None of these.

Bayshore Academy answered |
We can see that the letters in the series are decreasing by a fixed number of positions in the alphabet. Here's how the pattern works:
- Y to W: Moving 2 positions back in the alphabet (Y -> X -> W)
- W to U: Moving 2 positions back (W -> V -> U)
- U to S: Moving 2 positions back (U -> T -> S)
- S to Q: Moving 2 positions back (S -> R -> Q)
Following the same pattern, we move 2 positions back from Q:
- Q to O: (Q -> P -> O)
- O to M: (O -> N -> M)
Thus, the next two letters in the sequence are O and M.
The correct answer is D: O, M.

Error Analysis:
The error in the given sentence is in part (B). The word "an" should be replaced with "a" before the word "joint".
Corrected Sentence:
Instead, Prime Minister Nabaz Sharif is said to be considering a joint probe into Pathankot even as there have been some arrests of lower-level JeM cadre.
Explanation:
The given sentence discusses Prime Minister Nabaz Sharif's stance on a joint probe into the Pathankot incident. Let's break down the sentence to understand it better:
Part A: Instead, Prime Minister Nabaz Sharif is
This part introduces the topic of the sentence and states that Prime Minister Nabaz Sharif is involved in the discussion.
Part B: said to be considering a joint probe
This part explains that the Prime Minister is considering a joint probe. However, the error lies in the use of the article "an" before the word "joint." The correct article to use in this case is "a."
Part C: into Pathankot even as there have been
This part mentions the location of the probe, which is Pathankot. It also introduces a contrasting element by using the phrase "even as there have been." This indicates that despite some developments or arrests, the Prime Minister is still considering a joint probe.
Part D: some arrests of lower-level JeM cadre
This part highlights the arrests of lower-level JeM (Jaish-e-Mohammed) cadre members. It suggests that there have been some developments in the case, but the Prime Minister is still considering a joint probe.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: Instead, Prime Minister Nabaz Sharif is said to be considering a joint probe into Pathankot even as there have been some arrests of lower-level JeM cadre.
The error in the given sentence is in part (B). The word "an" should be replaced with "a" before the word "joint".

Arti joshi answered |
Understanding the Error
The sentence in question is: "The judge said that the crime motivated by robbery and not racial prejudice."
Identifying the Error
- The error lies in part (B): "the crime motivated."
Explanation of the Error
- Missing Verb: The phrase "the crime motivated" lacks a verb. It should include a form of the verb "to be" to clarify the relationship between the subject and the participle "motivated."
- Correct Structure: The corrected phrase should read "the crime was motivated." This construction properly uses the past participle "motivated" as part of a passive voice structure, indicating that the crime was influenced or driven by robbery.
Corrected Sentence
- After correction, the sentence should read: "The judge said that the crime was motivated by robbery and not racial prejudice."
Importance of Proper Grammar
- Clarity: Proper grammatical structure enhances clarity and understanding. In legal contexts, precision is paramount.
- Professionalism: Using correct grammar reflects professionalism and attention to detail, which is essential in judicial statements.
Conclusion
- The correct answer is option (B) due to the absence of a necessary verb in the phrase. By revising it to include "was," the sentence becomes grammatically accurate and conveys the intended meaning effectively.
