In the following question, a series is given with one term missing. Choose the correct term to complete the sequence.
XYA, WUB, VQC, ?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
Analyze the pattern of letters at each position:
• First letter: X (24) − 1 = W (23) − 1 = V (22) − 1 = U (21)
• Second letter: Y (25) − 4 = U (21) − 4 = Q (17) − 4 = M (13)
• Third letter: A (1) + 1 = B (2) + 1 = C (3) + 1 = D (4)
Combining the letters, we get UMD.
Therefore, the correct option is (D).
