Correct Answer: NOA
Solution :
Given:
FGO, HIR, JKU, LMX, ?
Add 2 in the first and second letter and add 3 in the third letter of each term to obtain the next term –
FGO→F + 2 = H; G + 2 = I; O + 3 = R→HIR
HIR→H + 2 = J; I + 2 = K; R + 3 = U→JKU
JKU→J + 2 = L; K + 2 = M; U + 3 = X→LMX
LMX→L + 2 = N; M + 2 = O; X + 3 = A→NOA
So, NOA is the next term of the series. Hence, the second option is correct.
