Question

Find the next two terms of the series: 
The given series is: \( A, C, F, J, ? \). 

(A) O 
(B) U 
(C) R 
(D) V 
Choose the correct answer from the options given below: 
 

• (A) and (B) respectively
• (B) and (A) respectively
• (C) and (D) respectively
• (D) and (C) respectively

Hint:

For sequences involving letters, check the difference in their positions in the alphabet.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

 

Step 1: Analyze the series. 
The given series is: \( A, C, F, J, ? \). Let's find the pattern in the alphabetical order: 

- \( A \to C \to F \to J \). Notice the increase in position: \( A(1), C(3), F(6), J(10) \). The positions increase by 2, 3, and 4, respectively. The next step should be an increase by 5, so the next term is \( J + 5 = O \), and after that, \( O + 6 = U \). 
 

Step 2: Conclusion. 
The next two terms are \( O \) and \( U \), making the correct answer 2. (B) and (A) respectively.
