Abstract Reasoning Examples using Letters
Exercise 6
Find the letters that best complete the series:
The alphabet will assist us:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
The first letter, in all the squares, follows alphabetical order: A, B, C, D; so, we replace the first question mark with "E".
Now we have: X V T R.
Observing the alphabet we have:
X (- 2) = V (From right to left)
V (- 2) = T
T (- 2) = R
Thus: R (- 2) = ? (P)
The answer to this exercise is "a" (EP).
Exercise 7
Words have been written in code. The first word and its code have been given to you, but you must find the second code:
The alphabet again:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
We analyze that:
S (+3) = V
I (+3) = L
T (+3) = W
This way:
R (+3) = U
E (+3) = H
D (+3) = G
Answer: The Code for RED is [ UHG ].
