Question:

Which of the following letter-number cluster will replace the question mark (?) in the given series?

TJM10, ULP12, VNS14, WPV16, XRY18, ?

Options:

1.   YTB21
2.   YSZ21
3.   YTB20
4.   YSZ20

Answer:

Option 3: YTB20

Explanation:

Let's analyze the pattern in the given series:

 * The first letter of each cluster is in alphabetical order: T, U, V, W, X, ...

 * The second letter of each cluster is also in alphabetical order, but skipping one letter: J, L, N, P, R, ...

 * The third letter of each cluster is also in alphabetical order, but skipping two letters: M, P, S, V, Y, ...

 * The number at the end increases by 2 in each cluster: 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, ...

Following this pattern, the next cluster should be:

 * First letter: Y

 * Second letter: T

 * Third letter: B

 * Number: 20

Therefore, the answer is YTB20.
