Question

What should come in place of? in the given series based on the English alphabetical order?
HVP, JZO, LDN, NHM, ?

A.

PLL

B.

NLN

C.

MLM

D.

OLL

Correct option is A

Given - HVP, JZO, LDN, NHM, ?

First letter:
H → J → L → N
The first letter is increased by 2 positions in the alphabet:
H (8th letter), J (10th letter), L (12th letter), N (14th letter), so the next letter should be P (16th letter).
Second letter:
V → Z → D → H
The second letter follows a pattern of alternating between the end of the alphabet and the start:
V → Z (move forward by 4 positions),
Z → D (move forward by 4 positions),
D → H (move forward by 4 positions).
Therefore, the next letter should be L (move forward by 4 positions from H).
Third letter:
P → O → N → M
The third letter is decreasing by 1 position in the alphabet:
P (16th letter), O (15th letter), N (14th letter), M (13th letter), so the next letter should be L (12th letter).
Conclusion:
The next combination should be PLL.
Answer:
A. PLL
