Question and options

What comes next in the series?
A, C, F, J, ...
  1. “O”
  2. “M”
  3. “N”
  4. “P”

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A - “O”
The positions are A = 1, C = 3, F = 6, J = 10, so the gaps grow by one each time: 2, 3, 4. The next gap is 5, giving 10 + 5 = 15, which is O; N (14) and M (13) use too small a gap.
