Question

What will be the next term in the series BKS, DJT, FIU, HHV, .........?

• A. IJX
• B. JGW
• C. JGU
• D. IGX

Hint:

When solving letter-based sequences, focus on the position of the letters in the alphabet and check the pattern of increases or decreases in each position.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The pattern in the series can be understood by examining each letter’s position in the alphabet:
- First letters: B, D, F, H (2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th letters of the alphabet, increasing by 2).
- Second letters: K, J, I, H (11th, 10th, 9th, 8th letters, decreasing by 1).
- Third letters: S, T, U, V (19th, 20th, 21st, 22nd letters, increasing by 1).
Thus, the next term will be formed by continuing the pattern:
- The first letter after H (8th) will be J (10th).
- The second letter after H (8th) will be G (7th).
- The third letter after V (22nd) will be W (23rd).
Hence, the next term in the series is JGW.

Answer 2

We are given the series: BKS, DJT, FIU, HHV, ?

Let’s analyze the pattern in each position of the letters in the terms.

First Letters:
B (2), D (4), F (6), H (8)
Pattern: +2 each time → Next: 8 + 2 = 10 → J

Second Letters:
K (11), J (10), I (9), H (8)
Pattern: −1 each time → Next: 8 − 1 = 7 → G

Third Letters:
S (19), T (20), U (21), V (22)
Pattern: +1 each time → Next: 22 + 1 = 23 → W

Conclusion:
The next term in the series is JGW.
