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

FPA, HSB, IVD, KYE, ?, NEH

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. LBG.

Given series: FPA, HSB, IVD, KYE, ?, NEH

The series follows this pattern:

FPA, HSB

F + 2 = H

P + 3 = S

A + 1 = B

HSB, IVD

H + 1 = I

S + 3 = V

B + 2 = D

IVD, KYE

I + 2 = K

V + 3 = Y

D + 1 = E

KYE,?

K + 1 = L

Y + 3 = B

E + 2 = G

So, the missing term in the series is LBG.
