Select the letter-cluster from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the following series.

WUW, TSV, QQU, NOT, ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e KMS.

Given series: WUW, TSV, QQU, NOT,?

The series follows this pattern:

W - 3 = T; T - 3 = Q; Q - 3 = N; N - 3 = K

U - 2 = S; S - 2 = Q; Q - 2 = O; O - 2 = M

W - 1 = V; V - 1 = U; U - 1 = T; T - 1 = S

So, the next term in the series is KMS
