Correct Answer: ER 84


Solution : Given:
BO 88, ?, HU 80, KX 76, NA 72

For letter-based series –
Add 3 in the place value of the first letter and the second letter of the previous term of the given series.
BO→B + 3 = E; O + 3 = R→ER
ER→E + 3 = H; R + 3 = U→HU
HU→H + 3 = K; U + 3 = X→KX
KX→K + 3 = N; X + 3 = A→NA
For number-based series –
Subtract 4 from the previous numeric term of the given series.
88 – 4 = 84; 84 – 4 = 80; 80 – 4 = 76; 76 – 4 = 72

So, ER 84 is the missing term in the series. Hence, the third option is correct.
