Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Answer: W119

Explanation:

  • Letter pattern: Each letter advances 5 positions in the alphabet. C -> H -> M -> R -> W.

  • Number pattern: The numbers decrease by 25, then 20, then 15, so the next decrease is 10: 189 -> 164 (-25) -> 144 (-20) -> 129 (-15) -> 119 (-10).

  • Combine the letter W and the number 119 to get the next term: W119.
