If 1st and 26th, 2nd and 25th, 3rd and 24th and so on letters of the English alphabet are paired, then which of the following pairs is correct ?
Answer: D
The correct pair is I R.
When the 1st letter is paired with the 26th, the 2nd with the 25th and so on, the positions in every pair add up to 27. I is the 9th letter and R the 18th, and \(9 + 18 = 27\), so I pairs with R.
The other pairs fail the test: H (8) and T (20) add to 28, J (10) and P (16) to 26, and F (6) and V (22) to 28. H actually pairs with S, J with Q, and F with U.
