Correct Answer: QRSTU


Solution : Given:
C, EF, HIJ, LMNO, ?

The number of letters in each term in the series increases by 1 and the letters in a term are consecutive.
Add 2 to the place value of the last letter of a term to get the first letter of the next term –
C + 2 = E→EF; F + 2 = H→HIJ; J + 2 = L→LMNO; O + 2 = Q→QRSTU

QRSTU is the missing term in the series. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
