Correct answer: D. RL
Explanation
Second letters move back by 2 each time: T(20) → R(18) → P(16) → N(14) → L(12). First letters move forward by 3 after the first step: E(5) → J(10) → M(13) → P(16) → S(19). So the next term is SL.दूसरे अक्षर हर बार 2 पीछे जाते हैं: T(20) → R(18) → P(16) → N(14) → L(12)। पहले अक्षर पहले चरण के बाद 3-3 आगे बढ़ते हैं: E(5) → J(10) → M(13) → P(16) → S(19)। अतः अगला पद SL है।More Mathematical Reasoning and Aptitude questions
