Which of the following letter-number clusters will replace the question mark (?) in the given series to make it logically complete?
HO22 JQ31 LS40 NU49?
Identify Series Pattern: HO22 JQ31 LS40 NU49?
The question presents a series of letter-number clusters and asks to find the one that logically follows. We need to determine the pattern for both the letters and the numbers.
Letter Pattern Analysis
Let's examine the progression of the letters:
- The first letter of each cluster: H, J, L, N. The pattern is +2 (skipping one letter in between). H (+2) -> J (+2) -> L (+2) -> N. The next letter should be N (+2) -> P.
- The second letter of each cluster: O, Q, S, U. The pattern is also +2 (skipping one letter). O (+2) -> Q (+2) -> S (+2) -> U. The next letter should be U (+2) -> W.
Combining the next letters, we get PW.
Number Pattern Analysis
Now, let's look at the number part of the clusters:
- 22, 31, 40, 49.
- The difference between consecutive numbers is +9 (31 - 22 = 9; 40 - 31 = 9; 49 - 40 = 9).
- Following this pattern, the next number should be 49 + 9 = 58.
Combining Patterns
Combining the derived letter part (PW) and the number part (58), the cluster that logically completes the series is PW58.
Conclusion
Therefore, the correct option is PW58.
