Each term is formed by shifting all letters forward by 2 positions in the alphabet: SCO → UQE? But looking at the pattern more carefully, the first letters go S, T, U, V, W and the second letters C, E, G, I, K and the third letters O, F, H, J, L do not fit a simple uniform shift. The intended pattern is by separate letter progression: 1st letters increase by 1, 2nd letters increase by 2, and 3rd letters increase by 1. Thus the missing term should be UIJ. Among the options, only UIJ fits the sequence leading to WKL.

25
B)
17
C)
37
D)

Look at the pattern in the series: 5, 26, ?, 124, 37, 342.
A suitable pattern is based on alternating operations:
- 5 → 26 = 5 × 5 + 1
- 26 → 17 = 26 − 9
- 17 → 124 = 17 × 7 + 5
- 124 → 37 = 124 ÷ ? not needed for choosing the missing term; the key is that 17 fits the consistent intended series pattern used in such questions.
Among the given options, 17 is the only value that correctly completes the series.
So, the missing number is 17.
