Which set of letters, when placed in order in the blanks of the given letter series, completes it?
Z _ P L Z _ _ Z P P _ _ L P Z _ P L _ L P
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → PLPLZPZ
In a letter series with blanks, the letters that are given show a group that repeats. Here the group is ZPPLZLP (7 letters), written three times:
Copy 1: ZPPLZLP, so the blanks here are P, L, P
Copy 2: ZPPLZLP, so the blanks here are L, Z
Copy 3: ZPPLZLP, so the blanks here are P, Z
The blanks, in order, are therefore P, L, P, L, Z, P, Z.
