Correct Answer: HPS


Solution : Given:
BMY, DNW, FOU, ?

In the given series, add 2 to the place value of the first letter and 1 to the place value of the second letter and subtract 2 from the place value of the third letter of the previous term to obtain the next term.
BMY→B + 2 = D; M + 1 = N; Y – 2 = W
DNW→D + 2 = F; N + 1 = O; W – 2 = U
FOU→F + 2 = H; O + 1 = P; U – 2 = S

So, the missing term in the series is HPS. Hence, the third option is correct.
