Find the missing term in the series:
B12D, G32I, L52N, ?, V92X
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → Q72S
1. The First Letter
Let's look at the sequence of the first letters: B, G, L, ?, V.
We can track their positions in the alphabet:
- B = 2
- G = 7 ($+5$)
- L = 12 ($+5$)
- ? = $12 + 5 = 17 \rightarrow$ Q
- V = $17 + 5 = 22$ (Matches the sequence)
2. The Middle Number
Let's look at the sequence of numbers: 12, 32, 52, ?, 92.
The pattern here is a simple addition of 20:
- $12 + 20 = 32$
- $32 + 20 = 52$
- $52 + 20 =$ 72
- $72 + 20 = 92$ (Matches the sequence)
3. The Last Letter
Finally, let's look at the last letters: D, I, N, ?, X.
Tracking their positions in the alphabet:
- D = 4
- I = 9 ($+5$)
- N = 14 ($+5$)
- ? = $14 + 5 = 19 \rightarrow$ S
- X = $19 + 5 = 24$ (Matches the sequence)
Final Result
Combining these three parts (Q, 72, and S), we get: Q72S
The correct option is Q72S.
