A series is given with one wrong term. Select the wrong term from the given series.
NVK, KSH, HPE, EMB, BJZ
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
Given series:
NVK, KSH, HPE, EMB, BJZ
Analyze the letter pattern
Find the differences between consecutive terms
From NVK to KSH:
N(14) → K(11): -3
V(22) → S(19): -3
K(11) → H(8): -3
From KSH to HPE:
K(11)→ H(8): -3
S(19) → P(16): -3
H(8) → E(5): -3
From HPE to EMB:
H(8)→ E(5): -3
P(16) → M(13): -3
E(5) → B(2): -3
From EMB to BJZ:
E(5) → B(2): -3
M(13) → J(10): -3
B(2) → Z(26): -2 (Here is the mismatch — it should be -3, which would give Y instead of Z)
The last term BJZ is incorrect.
Hence, the correct answer is option (3).
