Explanation:

Let’s break it down step by step:

- The series is DPSQ, GTXW, ?, MBHI, PFMO.

- Look at each letter’s position in the alphabet. For example, D (4), P (16), S (19), Q (17).

- Compare DPSQ to GTXW:

- D to G: +3

- P to T: +4

- S to X: +5

- Q to W: +6

- See the pattern? Each letter jumps by one more than the previous, so +3, +4, +5, +6.

- If you continue, next should be +3, +4, +5, +6 from GTXW (G, T, X, W):

- G +3 = J

- T +4 = X

- X +5 = C (because after Z comes A, B, C…)

- W +6 = C

- So we get: JXCC

Let’s check the options:

- Option 4: JXCC.

- That fits.

Here’s what the other options give (just for completeness):

- Option 1 (HWBC) – Does not match pattern

- Option 2 (KXDC) – Does not match pattern

- Option 3 (IJDE) – Does not match pattern

Answer:

Option 4: JXCC
