Which of the following options will be the next term in the given series?
aabaaaaa, abaaaaaa, baaaaaaa, (?)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Series:
aabaaaaa, abaaaaaa, baaaaaaa, (?)
In each term, the letter “b” shifts one position to the left.
Position of b:
aabaaaaa → 3rd position
abaaaaaa → 2nd position
baaaaaaa → 1st position
After reaching the first position, b moves to the last position.
Therefore, the next term = aaaaaaab
Hence, the correct answer is option (2).
