To find the missing letter in the series E, C, G, H, _, J, we can analyze the pattern of the letters:
1. First, let's look at the letters' positions in the alphabet:
- E is the 5th letter.
- C is the 3rd letter.
- G is the 7th letter.
- H is the 8th letter.
- J is the 10th letter.
2. Now let's look at positions in pairs:
- From E (5) to C (3): decreases by 2.
- From C (3) to G (7): increases by 4.
- From G (7) to H (8): increases by 1.
- From H (8) to J (10): increases by 2.
3. If we try to identify a consistent pattern, it appears that the series alternates between decreases and increases, but the exact sequence is slightly irregular.
However, if we observe the set closely, we notice an irregularity. To analyze our series more carefully specifically by looking at pairs:
Pairs of jumps may yield a pattern that repeats or has elements at different intervals.
1. From E (5) to C (3) is minus 2
2. From C (3) to G (7) is plus 4
3. From G (7) to H (8) is plus 1
4. The next logical step we suspect is a decrease again, but H should lead us on minus 1 (which is 7), or we might have to guess on a likely candidate alphabet letter.
Thus, if we interpret logically, after H, the letter that fits seems consistent for what it maintains in jumps is an 'F'.
Therefore, the series is:
E, C, G, H, F, J.
Thus, the missing letter is **F**.
