Given:
FIL, KMO, PQR, UUU, ?
Add 5, 4, and 3 to the first, second, and third letters of the previous term to obtain the next term in the series –
FIL→F + 5 = K; I + 4 = M; L + 3 = O
KMO→K + 5 = P; M + 4 = Q; O + 3 = R
PQR→P + 5 = U; Q + 4 = U; R + 3 = U
UUU→U + 5 = Z; U + 4 = Y; U + 3 = X
So, ZYN is the missing term in the series. Hence, the third option is correct.
