We know the all English alphabet from A to Z. There, "H" is the 18th letter and "J" is the 16th letter when counting from Z to A and also excepting the letter "Z".

M is 13:O is 11 middle alphabet N is 12. So O N M L K J I H G like this we have to estimate.

Position of M O H J among the 26 alphabets.

M --> 13; so 26-13 = 13.

O --> 15; 26-15 = 11.

H --> 8; 26-8 = 18.

J --> 10; 26-10 = 16.

And the answer is B. 18 16.

Given-M O:13 11.
According to Alphabets.
M O:13 15.
Now,
Compare first-13+13=26.
Compare second-11+15=26.
Now according to alphabets-H J:8 10.
Now add 18 into 8 to get 26.
Add 16 into 10 to get 26.

Means addition should be 26 only.

We have to give numbers to the alphabets from z to a as z=1, y=2,......, a=26 and in the given ques M=14-1 and O=12-1, similarly H=19-1 and J=17-1.

Position of M is 13 now 26 - 13 = 13
Position of O is 15 now 26 - 15 = 11

Similarly

Position of H is 8 now 26 - 8 = 18
Position of J is 10 now 26 - 10 = 16

So Answer is B 18 16

M=14 14-1=13
O=12 12-1=11
H=19 19-1=18
J=17 17-1=16

Read the alphabets in reverse order. When we read M in reverse order it comes after 13 letters n similarly O comes after 11 letters. Now when we read H n J in reverse order they will come after 18 n 16 letters respectively.

QUE:- MO : 13 11 :: HJ : ?

ANS:- M "N" O :13 "12" 11

H "I" J :18 "17" 16
