B, D, G, K, P, ?

  1. R

  2. S

  3. T

  4. V

  5. None of these


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Given pattern of the series is: B(+2)→D, D(+3)→G, G(+4)→K, K(+5)→P, and so on. So, the next term is = P(+6) =>V.

Directions: What will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following number series?

  1. accda

  2. accad

  3. cacda

  4. acdca

  5. aaccd


Correct Option: A
