What will replace '?' in the following alphanumeric series?

C2X, G3T, K5P, O7L, ?, W13D

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

Looking at the series: C2X, G3T, K5P, O7L, ?, W13D

Each term has three components: a letter, a number, and another letter. Let's analyze each component separately.


First letter pattern: C, G, K, O, ?, W

Converting to positions in the alphabet:

  • C = 3
  • G = 7
  • K = 11
  • O = 15
  • ? = 19
  • W = 23

The difference between consecutive terms is 4.

Position 19 corresponds to the letter S.


Number pattern: 2, 3, 5, 7, ?, 13

These are prime numbers in sequence: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13

The missing number is 11.


Last letter pattern: X, T, P, L, ?, D

Converting to positions in the alphabet:

  • X = 24
  • T = 20
  • P = 16
  • L = 12
  • ? = 8
  • D = 4

The difference between consecutive terms is -4.

Position 8 corresponds to the letter H.


The missing term is S11H.

Therefore, the answer is Option 2: S11H.
