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

CMQR, BONV, AQKZ, ZSHD,?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. YUEH.

Given series: CMQR, BONV, AQKZ, ZSHD,?

The series follows this pattern:

CMQR, BONV

C - 1 = B

M + 2 = O

Q - 3 = N

R + 4 = V

Similarly,

ZSHD,?

Z - 1 = Y

S + 2 = U

H - 3 = E

D + 4 = H

So, the next term in the series is YUEH.

Hence, the correct answer is YUEH.
