Directions: in the following questions, a letter number sequence is given with one or more terms missing as shown by (?). Choose the missing term(s).D-4, F-6, H-8, J-10, ?, ?
Correct answer: C. L-12, N-14
- A. K-12, M-13
- B. L-12, M-14
- C. L-12, N-14
- D. K-12, M-14
Explanation
To solve the sequence D-4, F-6, H-8, J-10, ?, ?, we need to identify the patterns in both the letters and numbers separately:Letters:D → F → H → JThe letters are increasing by 2 positions in the alphabet each time:D → F: 2 positions forward.F → H: 2 positions forward.H → J: 2 positions forward.Continuing this pattern, the next letters after J will be L and then N.Numbers:4 → 6 → 8 → 10The numbers are increasing by 2 each time:6 - 4 = 28 - 6 = 210 - 8 = 2Continuing this pattern, the next numbers after 10 will be 12 and then 14.Thus, the complete sequence is: D-4, F-6, H-8, J-10, L-12, N-14. Option C is correct because it correctly follows this pattern.
