Find the next term in the alphanumeric series:
2 CV, 3 FU, 5 IT, 7 LS, ____?____
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → 11 OR
In an alphanumeric series each part of the term follows its own rule, so the numbers, the first letters and the second letters are checked separately.
Numbers 2, 3, 5, 7: the prime numbers in order, so the next is 11
First letters C (3), F (6), I (9), L (12): each is 3 places ahead, so the next is O (15)
Second letters V, U, T, S: each is one place back, so the next is R
The next term is 11 OR.
