Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Looking at the series: Z3, B8, F24, L48, T120, ?

First, examining the letter pattern and their positions in the alphabet:

Z = 26

B = 2

F = 6

L = 12

T = 20

The position differences are:

B - Z: 2 - 26 = -24 (wrapping around, or +2 from start)

F - B: 6 - 2 = 4

L - F: 12 - 6 = 6

T - L: 20 - 12 = 8

The differences follow the pattern: 4, 6, 8

The next difference should be 10.

20 + 10 = 30

Since there are only 26 letters, we wrap around: 30 - 26 = 4

Position 4 corresponds to the letter D.


Now examining the number pattern:

B (position 2) → 8: 2×4=82 \times 4 = 8

F (position 6) → 24: 6×4=246 \times 4 = 24

L (position 12) → 48: 12×4=4812 \times 4 = 48

T (position 20) → 120: 20×6=12020 \times 6 = 120

The multipliers are: 4, 4, 4, 6

Following the pattern, the next multiplier is 42.

D (position 4) → 4×42=1684 \times 42 = 168


Therefore, the next term is D168.

The answer is Option 3: D168
