    (1) K                     (2) L                     (3) I                      (4) M

    Answer: (3)

    Solution : First of all, assign a numeral value to each letter which is letter's alphabetic position in alphabet series.

  • A = 1  ,  J = 10  ,  O = 15  ,  F = 6  ,  G = 7
  • Add numeral value of both letters which are opposite to each other.

  • A + O = 1 + 15 = 16
  • F + J = 6 + 10 = 16
  • As the sum of place values of opposite letters is 16, we can find the place value using the given method. Let the unknown be x:

    G + ? =

    G + x = 16,

    7 + x = 16;

    x = 7, which is 7
