Correct option is C
To find the next term in the given series: 2Z5, 7Y7, 14X9, 23Q11, 34V13. Let us analyze the series step by step.
Step 1: Analyzing the numeric patterns
First Numbers: 2, 7, 14, 23, 34 · Difference between consecutive numbers:
· 7 − 2 = 5
· 14 − 7 = 7
· 23 − 14 = 9
· 34 − 23 = 11
· The differences increase by +2: 5, 7, 9, 11
· Next difference = 11 + 2 = 13
· Next number = 34 + 13 = 47
Step 2: Analyzing the letter patterns
Middle Letters: Z, Y, X, Q, V · Alphabet sequence: Z(26), Y(25), X(24), Q(17), V(22).
· Observe the corresponding positions in the alphabet:
· The pattern alternates between decreasing and jumping:
Z → Y(−1), Y → X(−1), X → Q(−7), Q → V(+5).
· Next step: V → U(−1).
Step 3: Analyzing the last numbers
Last Numbers: 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 · The numbers form an arithmetic sequence:
· 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 with a difference of +2.
· Next number = 13 + 2 = 15.
Step 4: Combining the results The next term in the series is: 47U15.

Series Analysis Tips:
· Break the series into components (numbers and letters).
· Look for patterns such as arithmetic, geometric, or alternating sequences.
2.
Common Letter Patterns:
· Letters often follow the alphabet (forward or backward).
· Irregular jumps may indicate specific rules or themes.
