Question

A series is given, with one term missing, Choose the correct alternative from the given ones that will complete the series. 

WWWWWWM, WWWWWMM,

WWWWMMM, WWWMMMM,

WWMMMMM,

1. MMMMMMM
2. WMMMMMM
3. WMMMMMW
4. MMMMMWW

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 2 : WMMMMMM

Pattern:

WWWWWWM: 6W + 1M

WWWWWMM: 5W + 2M

WWWWMMM: 4W + 3M

WWWMMMM: 3W + 4M

WWMMMMM: 2W + 5M

⇒ The number of W is decreasing by 1 and the number of M is increasing by 1 in every successive term.

Following the same pattern, the next term would have 1W + 6M.

Thus, the next term would be WMMMMMM.

Hence, WMMMMMM will complete the given series.
