Which of the following letter clusters will replace the question mark (?) and complete the following letter-cluster series?
GS, EU, AW, UY, MA,?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. CC.
Given series: GS, EU, AW, UY, MA,?
The series follows this pattern:
GS, EU
G - 2 = E
S + 2 = U
EU, AW
E - 4 = A
U + 2 = W
AW, UY
A - 6 = U
W + 2 = Y
UY, MA
U - 8 = M
Y + 2 = A
MA,?
M - 10 = C
A + 2 = C
So, the next term in the series is CC.
