Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Each labeled sector is paired with the sector directly opposite it, and the number is the product of the alphabetical positions of the two letters. Thus, EF is opposite 30, and E(5) × F(6) = 30; similarly, HJ is opposite 80, and H(8) × J(10) = 80. Since (i) is opposite 35, its letters must be EG because E(5) × G(7) = 35. Since FG is opposite (ii), (ii) = F(6) × G(7) = 42. Therefore, (i) = EG and (ii) = 42.
