Explanation:

- Let's break down the series: KQG, JTK, HXO, ECS, ?

- Look at the first letters: K, J, H, E.

- Pattern: Decrease by 1, Effectively 'K' to 'J' to 'H' to 'E', hence next should be 'B'.

- For the second letters: Q, T, X, C.

- Pattern: Q(-3) becomes T, T(+3) becomes X, X(-3) becomes C, so next is C(+3) = F.

- Third letters: G, K, O, S.

- Pattern: Each letter increases by 4. G(+4)=K(+4)=O(+4)=S, so next is S(+4)=W.

Given these deductions, BFW is formed.

- Options:

1. BIV

2. AIW

3. AHW

4. BIX

Unfortunately, none of the options perfectly match the deduced 'BFW', but the correct logical deduction aligns more closely with option 1, BIV. Moreover, this logical deduction is a common approach for series puzzles conforming to recognized patterns such as forward and backward alphabetical shifts.
