Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
Observe the pattern followed by each letter of the terms:
• First letter: Follows a continuous sequence (+1):
A (+1) → B (+1) → C (+1) → D (+1) → E (+1) → F
• Second letter: Increases by +3 each time:
B (2) + 3 = E (5)
E (5) + 3 = H (8)
H (8) + 3 = K (11)
K (11) + 3 = N (14)
N (14) + 3 = Q (17)
• Third letter: Increases by +5 each time:
D (4) + 5 = I (9)
I (9) + 5 = N (14)
N (14) + 5 = S (19)
S (19) + 5 = X (24)
X (24) + 5 = 29 ≡ C (3)
Combining these letters gives FQC.
Therefore, the correct option is (D).
