Re: Complete the Series

Hi Guys,

Finally i got the answer.....

Next term in the series is fox,gpy,hqz,irza,jszb. The letters should be any order. It means the answer also like this oxf,yrg,szg,....

Explanation:

SAJ = S + A + J = 19+1+10 = 30
KTB = K + T + B = 11+20+2 = 33
CLU = C + L + U = 3+12+21 = 36
.
.
.
FOX = F + O + X = 6+15+24=45
GPY = G + P + Y = 7+16+25=48
HQZ = H + Q + Z = 8+17+26=51
IRZA = I + R + Z + A= 9+18+26+1=54
JSZB = J + S + Z + B = 10+19+26+2 =57
.
.
.

Re: Complete the Series

i think the answer is "XFO" bcause consider in
s,t,u,v,w 1,2,3,2,3, and "X" has to be in first position
a,b,c,d,e it follows the series in the position 2,3,1,3 and next alpha has to be in "F" in second position
j,k,l,m,n 3,1,2,1,2 the next alphabet "O" is in 3rd position.

so da ans is "XFO"

Smile Re: Complete the Series

Hi, i two got a clues... First clue: ----------------------------------- if we are taking numerical values od each alphabet and than adding tham by each other than the series will look like that: 30,33,36,39,42,45 and so on.. S a j having values : 19,1,10=> sototal will be 30 k t b having values: 11, 20, 2=> so total will be 33 and so on and as manoj was saying that dont think about the orders of alphabet than that doesn't matter that aplhabet is placed at the starting or at the end... I think u are conerntrating on the series value... Another clue: ------------------------------ one more thing which i had pointed out that is: s a j numeric value is: 19 1 10 =1 (this is the sum of the digits 19, 10, 1 which is 1) k t b numeric value is: 11 20 2 =2 (here sum of the digits is 2, see below) c l u numeric value is: 3 12 21 =3 here if we look the series value than we will notice that 19= 1+9= 10=1+0=1 same is we are taking 11= 1+1=2 , 20= 2+0 =2 and is we are taking 12=1+2=3 , 21=2+1= 3 is this right manoj? the series is 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8......
