Select the letter cluster that will replace the question mark (?) in the following series.
QPO, SRQ, UTS, WVU, ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → YXW

First letters Q, S, U, W: each is 2 places after the previous one, so the next first letter is Y
Three letters backwards from Y: Y, X, W, giving YXW
