Which three letters have the same distance as they have in the alphabetical order although they have changed places ?
Answer: B
Correct answer: YLF
The test is that the gaps between the three letters in the given series match the gaps between them in the alphabet.
In the series, Y is 3rd, L is 16th and F is 22nd, so the gaps are 13 and 6. In the alphabet Y is 25th, L is 12th and F is 6th, so the gaps are again 13 and 6.
Both intervals agree, though the letters have moved and the direction has reversed. None of the other groups reproduces both gaps.
