Question

The next term of the given series is :

YEB, WFD, UHG, SKI, ______.

The correct answer is

QOL

Look at each letter position separately (A = 1, ..., Z = 26).

First letters: Y(25), W(23), U(21), S(19) → each -2 → next Q(17).
Second letters: E(5), F(6), H(8), K(11) → +1, +2, +3 → next +4 = O(15).
Third letters: B(2), D(4), G(7), I(9) → +2, +3, +2 → next +3 = L(12).

So the next term is formed by Q, O and L.

Check: the second-letter gaps 1, 2, 3, 4 and third-letter gaps 2, 3, 2, 3 continue the pattern.

Hence, QOL.
