Question

Find the missing term in the sequence: \[ A, \; Z, \; G, \; T, \; M, \; N, \; S, \; \_, \; Y, \; B \]

• A. F
• B. G
• C. H
• D. I

Hint:

For letter sequence puzzles, write out alphabet positions and look for numerical patterns or alternating sequences.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Identify the pattern in the sequence.
List the letters with their positions in the alphabet: \[ A(1), Z(26), G(7), T(20), M(13), N(14), S(19), \_, Y(25), B(2) \]
Step 2: Look for a pattern in the sequence.
Observing the pattern: the letters alternate between the start and the end of the alphabet, possibly mixing forward and backward moves. Check the difference between the letters: \( A \rightarrow Z \): from 1 to 26 (end of alphabet)
\( Z \rightarrow G \): 26 to 7
\( G \rightarrow T \): 7 to 20
\( T \rightarrow M \): 20 to 13
\( M \rightarrow N \): 13 to 14
\( N \rightarrow S \): 14 to 19
\( S \rightarrow ? \): 19 to ?
\( ? \rightarrow Y \): ? to 25
\( Y \rightarrow B \): 25 to 2
Step 3: Hypothesis:
The missing letter should be \( H \) (position 8), which fits the alternating pattern of letters moving forward and backward. Thus, the missing term is: \[ \boxed{H} \]
