SSC CGL 2024 (Tier-I) Previous Year Paper (17-Sep-2024) (Shift 3)
The correct answer is

r p q r q r q r q p

To solve the problem, we need to fill the blanks in the sequence using the correct option from the provided choices.

The given sequence is: q p _ r _ q r p _ r _ q _ p _ q

Let's go through the options step by step:

  1. Option 1: r p q r q r p q r p q
    • Filling the sequence: q p r r p q r p r r p q q p r q.
    • This does not create a repeating pattern or make sense.
  2. Option 2: r p q r q r q r p
    • Filling the sequence: q p r r p q r p r r q q p p q.
    • This also does not maintain a consistent pattern throughout the sequence.
  3. Option 3: r p q r q r q r q p
    • Filling the sequence: q p r r p q r p q r r q p r p q.
    • This forms a consistent repeating pattern as we can see: (q p r), (r p q), (r q r), (q r q), (r q p).
  4. Option 4: r p q q r q r p q p
    • Filling the sequence: q p r r p q q q r r q p q p q q.
    • No consistent pattern is formed in the sequence.

By comparing the results, Option 3: r p q r q r q r q p correctly completes the series as it maintains a consistent pattern throughout.

Thus, the correct answer is Option 3: r p q r q r q r q p.

Conclusion: By logical deduction and pattern recognition, Option 3 is the correct sequence that completes the series.
