Made by AI and not reviewed by a real person.
What comes next in the pattern: A, C, F, J, O, ?
- U
- S
- V
- W
- T
Show a hint
- Look at how many letters you move forward each time.
- The jumps get bigger by 1 each step.
Show the answer and solution
Answer: A — U
The letter moves forward by 2, then 3, then 4, then 5, so the next jump is 6. Starting from O, moving 6 letters gives U. A common trap is V, which would come from adding 7 instead of continuing the pattern of increasing by 1.
