    Question

    Select the alphanumeric-cluster from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the following series.
    2D, 3I, 4P, ?

    A.

    5Z

    B.

    5W

    C.

    5Y

    D.

    5X

    Correct option is C

    Given: 2D, 3I, 4P, ?
    Logic: Number increases by +1, and letter position follows n² (2², 3², 4², 5²) pattern.
    Number Pattern:
    2 → 3 → 4 → 5
    D (4th letter) → I (9th letter) → P (16th letter) → ?
    Letter positions follow the square number sequence:
    D → 4 (2²)
    I → 9 (3²)
    P → 16 (4²)
    ? → 5² = 25th letter = Y
    Therefore, next term = 5Y
    Thus, the correct option is (c) 5Y.
