This question was previously asked in
SSC CGL 2025 Tier 2 Paper 1 Question Paper (19-Jan-2026)
The correct answer is
g,f,k,h

Identifying the Pattern Sequence

The question asks to fill the blanks in the sequence: $_f_hk_gh_fg_k$. This sequence contains 5 blank positions indicated by underscores.

Determining the Filling Sequence

The correct option provided is A, which gives the sequence $g, f, k, h$. This sequence consists of 4 letters.

Because the pattern has 5 blanks and the provided sequence has only 4 letters, we infer that the sequence must be applied cyclically to fill all the blanks.

Filling the Blanks Step-by-Step

The structure of the pattern is: $[Blank 1] f [Blank 2] hk [Blank 3] gh [Blank 4] fg [Blank 5] k$.

We apply the sequence $g, f, k, h$ cyclically:

  • Blank 1: Filled with the 1st letter of the sequence, $g$. The pattern starts: $g$f...
  • Blank 2: Filled with the 2nd letter, $f$. The pattern progresses: ...$f$hk...
  • Blank 3: Filled with the 3rd letter, $k$. The pattern continues: ...$k$gh...
  • Blank 4: Filled with the 4th letter, $h$. The pattern moves on: ...$h$fg...
  • Blank 5: The sequence is now exhausted. We cycle back to the 1st letter, $g$, to fill the final blank. The pattern ends: ...$g$k

Final Sequence

Combining the filled blanks with the fixed parts yields the complete sequence: $g f f hk k gh h fg g k$.
