Select the letter-cluster from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the given series.

DPAY, EOBX, FNCW, ?

Given: DPAY, EOBX, FNCW, ?

Logic: Each letter follows a consistent pattern → (1st letter: +1, 2nd letter: -1, 3rd letter: +1, 4th letter: -1).

First letters: D → E → F → ?
D + 1 = E, E + 1 = F, F + 1 = G
So, the missing letter is G.
Second letters: P → O → N → ?
P - 1 = O, O - 1 = N, N - 1 = M
So, the missing letter is M.
Third letters: A → B → C → ?
A + 1 = B, B + 1 = C, C + 1 = D
So, the missing letter is D.
Fourth letters: Y → X → W → ?
Y - 1 = X, X - 1 = W, W - 1 = V
So, the missing letter is V.
Therefore the next term is GMDV.
Thus, the correct option is (c) GMDV.
