Find the next term in the series: BMO, EOQ, HQS, ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → KSU
In a letter series, each position of the term follows its own rule, so the first, second and third letters are checked separately (A = 1, B = 2, ...).
First letters B (2), E (5), H (8): each is 3 places ahead, so next is K (11)
Second letters M (13), O (15), Q (17): each is 2 places ahead, so next is S (19)
Third letters O (15), Q (17), S (19): each is 2 places ahead, so next is U (21)
