    Question

    Select the term from the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the given series to make it logically complete.
    BP 74, ?, FT 64, HV 59, JX 54

    A.

    CS 70

    B.

    DR 69

    C.

    ET 68

    D.

    ES 70

    Correct option is B

    Given - BP 74, ?, FT 64, HV 59, JX 54
    Identify the alphabetical pattern
    Now, following the pattern, the term between B and F should involve moving +2 steps.
    B → D
    Identify the second letter pattern
    Following the pattern, the second letter should move +4 from P, which gives R.
    Identify the number pattern
    Step 4: Combine the results
    The term should be DR 69.
    Final Answer: B) DR 69
    B → F → H → J
    The alphabetical sequence follows the pattern: +2 steps.
    B + 2 = D, D + 2 = F, F + 2 = H, H + 2 = J

    missing term will be D as first letter.
    P → T → V → X
    This follows the pattern: +4 steps consistently.
    P + 2 = R, R + 2 = T, T + 2 = V, V + 2 = X

    Missing term will be R as second letter.
    74 → ? → 64 → 59 → 54
    The number pattern is decreasing by 5 each step.

    74 - 5 = 69, 69 - 5= 64, 64 - 5= 59, 59 - 4= 54

    hence missing term will be DR 69

    Alternative method:

    hence option b is correct.
