Given the sequence of terms, AD CG FK JP, the next term is

Let us analyze the letters by their alphabetical positions (A = 1, B = 2, ..., Z = 26):

First letters:

• A (1)

• C (3): $1 + 2 = 3$

• F (6): $3 + 3 = 6$

• J (10): $6 + 4 = 10$

• Next first letter: $10 + 5 = 15$, which corresponds to O.

Second letters:

• D (4)

• G (7): $4 + 3 = 7$

• K (11): $7 + 4 = 11$

• P (16): $11 + 5 = 16$

• Next second letter: $16 + 6 = 22$, which corresponds to V.

Combining the two letters gives OV, which corresponds to option (A).
