Question

What should come in place of ? in the given series based on the English alphabetical order? YDB UHE QLH MPK ?

The correct answer is

ITN

Look at the first letters: Y, U, Q, M, which decrease by 4 positions each time in the alphabet (Y-4=U, U-4=Q, Q-4=M), so the next first letter is M - 4 = I.

Look at the second letters: D, H, L, P, which increase by 4 positions each time (D+4=H, H+4=L, L+4=P), so the next second letter is P + 4 = T.

Look at the third letters: B, E, H, K, which increase by 3 positions each time (B+3=E, E+3=H, H+3=K), so the next third letter is K + 3 = N.

Combining these gives the next term as ITN.

Hence, the term that comes in place of ? is ITN.
