The logic followed in this pattern is a combination of alphabetical shifts.

For 'WAVE' related to 'XBXG':

For 'KING' related to 'LJPI':

Applying the same logic to 'SONG':

Thus, SONG is related to TPPI.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 2'.

Given:

Word = EDITORIAL

Arrange the letters in alphabetical order:

Required letters:

• 4^th from the left = I
• 2^nd from the right = R

Letters between I and R in the English alphabet are:

J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q

Total letters between them = 8.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Given:

Word = FOXHUNTERS

Original Positions:

Arrange the letters in alphabetical order:

Comparison:

No letter remains in its original position.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Logic followed here is: Determine the fixed positions of individuals based on the given constraints to reconstruct the full linear arrangement.

For the position of S and C:

Only C is seated to the right of S. In a row of seven people facing North, this places S at the 6^th position and C at the 7^th position.

For the position of U:

Only one person is seated between U and S. Since S is at the 6^th position, U must be at the 4^th position.

For the position of T:

Only two people are seated between T and U. Since U is at the 4^th position, T must be at the 1^st position (4 − 3 = 1).

Similarly, for P, A, and B:

The remaining empty positions are 2, 3, and 5. A is seated at some place to the right of P, but at some place to the left of B. This establishes the sequence P → A → B. Therefore, P is at the 2^nd position, A is at the 3^rd position, and B is at the 5^th position.

Final Seating Arrangement:

To find the number of people seated between B and P:

Position of P = 2

Position of B = 5

People seated between them are at positions 3 and 4, which are A and U.

Total count = 2

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

1. Since all persons face the centre: right = counterclockwise (CCW), left = clockwise (CW). Fix E at pos(1). Only two people sit between E and O when counted from the right of E (CCW): E(1) → pos(7) → pos(6) → O(5). So O is at pos(5).

2. Only three people sit between E and H. Counting CCW from E(1): skip pos(7), pos(6), pos(5) → H(4). Since pos(5) is already taken by O, H must be at pos(4).

3. Only two people sit between O and I. From O(5), counting CCW: skip pos(4), pos(3) → I(2). Counting CW: skip pos(6), pos(7) → E(1). Thus, I is at pos(2).

4. A sits to the immediate left of G. Left is clockwise (CW). The remaining positions are 3, 6, and 7. If G sits at pos(6), its immediate left (CW) is pos(7), which is available for A. (If G was at 7, left is E; if G was at 3, left is H). So, G is at pos(6) and A is at pos(7).

5. The remaining person F fills pos(3). Final arrangement clockwise: E(1), I(2), F(3), H(4), O(5), G(6), A(7).

To find who sits third to the left of F, move clockwise from F(3): 1^st left is H(4), 2^nd left is O(5), and 3^rd left is G(6). Therefore, G sits third to the left of F.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 4'.

The logic followed here is:

Total number of people in the row = 29

Position of Karan from the right end = 9^th

Ramesh sits 5^th to the left of Karan.

Since everyone is facing North, moving to the left of Karan (who is already at the 9^th position from the right) means moving further away from the right end.

Position of Ramesh from the right end = Position of Karan from the right end + 5

= 9 + 5

= 14^th from the right end

To find Ramesh's position from the left end, we use the formula:

Position from the left end = (Total number of people − Position from the right end) + 1

= (29 − 14) + 1

= 15 + 1

= 16^th

So, Ramesh is 16^th from the left end.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Third Number = (First Number + Second Number) − 4

For the first set (8, 3, 7)

⇒ (8 + 3) − 4

⇒ 11 − 4 = 7.

For the second set (9, 4, 9)

⇒ (9 + 4) − 4

⇒ 13 − 4 = 9.

Applying the same logic to Option 4

(7, 2, 5)

⇒ (7 + 2) − 4

⇒ 9 − 4 = 5.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 4'.

The logic followed in this pattern is a series of alphabetical shifts where each letter in the first term is moved forward by 4 positions to obtain the corresponding letter in the second term.

For 'NEX' related to 'RIB':

For 'VBS' related to 'ZFW':

Applying the same logic to 'TAJ':

Thus, TAJ is related to XEN following the pattern of +4 shifts for each character.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 4'.

The logic followed here is

Logic: The positional values of the letters in the second cluster are obtained by adding 6 to the positional values of the corresponding letters in the first cluster in English alphabetical order.

Option 1)  GO - MU,

Option 2) FN - KS,

This pair follows a +5 pattern instead of +6, and thus does not belong to the group.

Option 3) HP - NV

Option 4) CK - IQ,

Therefore, the letter-cluster pair that is different from the others is FN - KS.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 2'.

Given Series:

(Left) F Z I U K J Q D H M C X O E N L P G B E A (Right)

Required pattern:

Consonant → Vowel → Vowel

Checking the series:

(Left) F Z I U K J Q D H M C X O E N L P G B E A (Right)

Vowels satisfying the condition:

→ I in (Z I U)

→ O in (X O E)

→ E in (B E A)

Therefore, there are 3 such vowels.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".
