[B.T.M. 2005]
F _ U 6 _ 9 I _ T 7 _ 20 _ 4 D 23
Answer: Option D
Answer: (d)
From the alternatives, it is clear that the series can be divided into 4 groups of four terms each _ each group comprising of two letters and two numbers, occurring alternately.
F _ U 6 / _ 9 I _ / T 7 _ 20 / _ 4 D 23 4D
indicates that in a group, the number in the second place denotes the position of the letter in the third place, in the English alphabet.
T 7 _ 20 indicates that in a group, the number at the fourth place denotes the position of the letter in the first place, in the English alphabet.
Thus, putting A = 1, B = 2, ....., Y = 25, Z = 26,
we have : 1st missing term = U = 21;
3rd missing term = 7th letter = G;
5th missing term = 23rd letter = W.
