BJ12, DL16, FN20, HP24, ?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking to identify the pattern in the sequence of letter-number pairs (BJ12, DL16, FN20, HP24) and determine the next pair in the sequence. We will likely need to analyze the relationship between the letters and the numbers to find the underlying rule and predict the next element.
Answer
(a) JS28
Answer for screen readers
(a) JS28
Steps to Solve
- Analyze the pattern in the letters
The first letters are B, D, F, H. Each letter is incremented by 2 in the alphabet. So, the next letter should be J.
The second letters are J, L, N, P. Each letter is incremented by 2 in the alphabet. So, the next letter should be R.
- Analyze the pattern in the numbers
The numbers are 12, 16, 20, 24. Each number is incremented by 4. So, the next number should be 28.
- Combine the predicted letter and number
Thus, the next pair in the sequence should be JR28. However, this is not one of the options. Looking at the available options, the first letter should be J, and based on the last letters, we can see that the correct answer must be JS28
(a) JS28
More Information
This is a sequence problem that tests pattern recognition skills. Each element in the sequence is related to the previous element by a specific rule.
Tips
A common mistake is to individually consider the letters and numbers without considering if there are two series of letters. Another mistake is to misidentify the increment in the number series.
