Question

Find the next one in the following series:  
ZAY, XBW, VCU, TDS, ____

Accepted Answer

To find the next term in the series, analyze the pattern of changes in each position of the letters:

1. **First letter sequence (Z, X, V, T):**  
   - The first letter decreases by 2 alphabetically:  
     $$ Z \rightarrow X \rightarrow V \rightarrow T \rightarrow R $$.

2. **Second letter sequence (A, B, C, D):**  
   - The second letter increases by 1 alphabetically:  
     $$ A \rightarrow B \rightarrow C \rightarrow D \rightarrow E $$.

3. **Third letter sequence (Y, W, U, S):**  
   - The third letter decreases by 2 alphabetically:  
     $$ Y \rightarrow W \rightarrow U \rightarrow S \rightarrow Q $$.

Thus, the next term is **REQ**, corresponding to option **(a)**.
