Which of the following will come next to the series? P , H , D , B , ?
A
Replace each letter of the series with its position number in the English alphabet.
P is the 16th letter, H is the 8th, D is the 4th and B is the 2nd letter.
So the numeric series becomes 16, 8, 4, 2, ?.
Each term is exactly half of the previous term: 16 ÷ 2 = 8, 8 ÷ 2 = 4, 4 ÷ 2 = 2.
Continuing the pattern, the next term is 2 ÷ 2 = 1.
The letter at position 1 in the alphabet is A.
So the series P, H, D, B is followed by A.
Hence the letter that comes next is A.
