ABCE : BCEG : : ? : EGKM
Solution
The pattern in the given analogy is as follows:
- ABCE : BCEG :: ? : EGKM
In the first pair, each letter in the second term is two places ahead of the corresponding letter in the first term in the English alphabet.
- A (1st letter) -> B (2nd letter)
- B (2nd letter) -> C (3rd letter)
- C (3rd letter) -> E (5th letter)
- E (5th letter) -> G (7th letter)
So, the missing term should be two places behind each letter in the term EGKM in the English alphabet.
- E (5th letter) -> C (3rd letter)
- G (7th letter) -> E (5th letter)
- K (11th letter) -> I (9th letter)
- M (13th letter) -> K (11th letter)
So, the missing term is CEIK.
Therefore, the complete analogy is:
- ABCE : BCEG :: CEIK : EGKM
