    Question

    Find the next term in given series.
    UNDERSTAND, ERST, NDERSTAN, RS, ?

    A.

    DERST

    B.

    DERSTA

    C.

    RSTAN

    D.

    ERSTA

    Correct option is B

    Observe pattern:
    UNDERSTAND
    ERST → middle part
    NDERSTAN → word without first and last letter
    RS → middle of previous small part
    Pattern is alternating:
    Big word → middle → big word (trimmed) → middle → again trimmed version
    From:
    NDERSTAN
    If we remove first and last letter again:
    NDERSTAN
    Remove N and N → DERSTA
    So next term = DERSTA
    Correct Answer: (B) DERSTA
