Select the letter-cluster from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the following series.
GRAM, EPYK, CNWI, ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3

Explanation:
GRAM, EPYK, CNWI, ?
The logic followed here is :
G→ (-2) → E → (-2) → C → (-2) → C → (-2) → A
R → (-2) → P → (-2) → N → (-2) → N → (-2) → L
A→ (-2) → Y → (-2) → W → (-2) → W → (-2) → U
M → (-2) → K → (-2) → I → (-2) → I → (-2) → G
So, the letter-cluster that replaces the (?) to complete the series is "ALUG"
