Pattern Analysis


This series contains three independent patterns:




  • First Letter (Q, S, U, W, ...): This sequence moves forward by 2 letters at each step. The letter after W is Y.


  • Number (1, 2, 6, 21, ...): This sequence follows the rule (previous number × n) + n, where 'n' starts at 1 and increments. The next number is (21 × 4) + 4 = 88.


  • Last Letter (F, E, D, C, ...): This sequence moves backward by 1 letter at each step. The letter after C is B.





Combining these results (Y, 88, B) gives the next term.



Final Answer: The correct option is C. Y88B
