Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's count the total number of letters and blanks in the series:The pattern has 15 positions: K U _ _ N K _ Q P _ _ U _ P NLet's try dividing it into equal blocks of 5 letters each:Block 1: K U _ _ NBlock 2: K _ Q P _Block 3: _ U _ P NComparing the blocks to find a repeating sequence:From Block 1 and Block 3, position 2 is 'U'.From Block 2 and Block 3, position 4 is 'P'.From Block 2, position 3 is 'Q'.From Block 1 and Block 2, position 1 is 'K'.From Block 1 and Block 3, position 5 is 'N'.Combining these, the repeating 5-letter block is K U Q P N.Let's fill in the blanks to form this repeating pattern:Block 1: K U [Q] [P] NBlock 2: K [U] Q P [N]Block 3: [K] U [Q] P NThe sequentially filled letters are: Q, P, U, N, K, Q.This matches option A.
