Select the letter cluster from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the following series.
MEND, PHJZ, SKFV, VNBR,?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. YQXN.
Given series: MEND, PHJZ, SKFV, VNBR, ?
The series follows the pattern:
MEND, PHJZ
M + 3 = P
E + 3 = H
N - 4 = J
D - 4 = Z
Similarly,
VNBR,?
V + 3 = Y
N + 3 = Q
B - 4 = X
R - 4 = N
So, the next term in the series is YQXN.
