WOMEN: EOMNW:: APPLE: ?
Last updated Sep 4, 2026
Correct Answer:
Option C —
LPPEA
To find the pattern, look at the positions of the letters in the word WOMEN:W (Position 1)
O (Position 2)
M (Position 3)
E (Position 4)
N (Position 5)
Reordering these letters to form EOMNW uses the position sequence: 4, 2, 3, 5, 1.
Now, apply the same positional sequence (4, 2, 3, 5, 1) to the word APPLE:
A (Position 1)
P (Position 2)
P (Position 3)
L (Position 4)
E (Position 5)
Position 4 = L
Position 2 = P
Position 3 = P
Position 5 = E
Position 1 = A
Putting them together gives LPPEA.
