Back to paper

Which of the following terms will replace the question mark (?) in the given series?

BGR, CIV, ELZ, HPD, LUH, ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. QAL

Given series: BGR, CIV, ELZ, HPD, LUH, ?

The series follows this pattern:

BGR, CIV

B + 1 = C

G + 2 = I

R + 4 = V

CIV, ELZ

C + 2 = E

I + 3 = L

V + 4 = Z

ELZ, HPD

E + 3 = H

L + 4 = P

Z + 4 = D

HPD, LUH

H + 4 = L

P + 5 = U

D + 4 = H

LUH, ?

L + 5 = Q

U + 6 = A

H + 4 = L

So, the next term in the series is QAL.

Hence, the correct answer is QAL.
