Correct Answer: XNHM


Solution : Given:
RJXU, UYPD, ?, ACZV, DRRE

Add 3, 15, and 9 to the place value of the first, third, and fourth letters respectively, and subtract 8 from the place value of the second letter of the previous term to get the next term in the given series –
RJXU→R + 3 = U, J + 15 = Y, X – 8 = P, U + 9 = D→UYPD
UYPD→U + 3 = X, Y + 15 = N, P – 8 = H, D + 9 = M→XNHM
XNHM→X + 3 = A, N + 15 = C, H – 8 = Z, M + 9 = V→ACZV
ACZV→A + 3 = D, C + 15 = R, Z – 8 = R, V + 9 = E→DRRE

So, the required missing term in the series is XNHM. Hence, the second option is correct.
