Question

Select the pair that follows the same pattern as that followed by the two pairs given below. Both pairs follow the same pattern.

IFG–KHI

LIJ–NKL

The correct answer is

KHI–MJK

Compare each letter of the first cluster with the letter in the same position of the second cluster. IFG–KHI: I (9) → K (11), F (6) → H (8), G (7) → I (9) – each letter moves 2 places forward.

LIJ–NKL: L (12) → N (14), I (9) → K (11), J (10) → L (12) – again each letter moves 2 places forward. So the rule is +2 for every letter.

KHI–LJJK → L: +1H → J: +2I → J: +1No
KGG–LIJK → L: +1G → I: +2G → J: +3No
KHI–MJKK → M: +2H → J: +2I → K: +2Yes
KGG–MJKK → M: +2G → J: +3G → K: +4No

Therefore KHI–MJK is the only pair in which every letter moves 2 places forward, like the two given pairs.

Check: adding 2 to K, H and I gives M, J and K, which is exactly MJK – so KHI–MJK follows the same pattern.

Hence, KHI–MJK.
