This question asks us to identify a pattern or relationship between pairs of letter groups based on their position in the English alphabet. We are given two examples: FAE G relates to MHLN, and IDHJ relates to PKOQ. We need to apply the same logic to find the corresponding group for LGKM.
Let's find the position of each letter in the English alphabet:
And for MHLN:
Now, let's see the difference in positions between the corresponding letters:
| Letter 1 | Position 1 | Letter 2 | Position 2 | Difference (Pos 2 - Pos 1) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| F | 6 | M | 13 | 13 - 6 = 7 |
| A | 1 | H | 8 | 8 - 1 = 7 |
| E | 5 | L | 12 | 12 - 5 = 7 |
| G | 7 | N | 14 | 14 - 7 = 7 |
The pattern observed is that each letter in the first group is shifted forward by 7 positions in the alphabet to get the corresponding letter in the second group.
Let's confirm this pattern using the second example:
And for PKOQ:
Checking the shift:
| Letter 1 | Position 1 | Letter 2 | Position 2 | Difference (Pos 2 - Pos 1) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| I | 9 | P | 16 | 16 - 9 = 7 |
| D | 4 | K | 11 | 11 - 4 = 7 |
| H | 8 | O | 15 | 15 - 8 = 7 |
| J | 10 | Q | 17 | 17 - 10 = 7 |
The +7 shift pattern holds true for the second pair as well.
Now, we apply the same "+7 shift" logic to find the related group for LGKM.
First, find the positions of the letters in LGKM:
Apply the +7 shift to each position:
Combining these letters, we get SNRT.
Following the "+7 shift" logic derived from the given examples, LGKM is related to SNRT.
Comparing this result with the options provided, option 2 (SNRT) is the correct match.
