A mother has taken to Reddit after being baffled by a brainteaser on her daughter's job application. The puzzle, posted on the r/brainteasers forum, asks applicants to find the next letter in a sequence.
The first line reads A, D, G, J, M, P, while the second line is C, G, K, O, S, ?. Many users were initially puzzled, but the solution turned out to be straightforward once the pattern was identified.
One user explained that the first row skips two letters between each (e.g., A to D skips B and C), while the second row skips three letters (e.g., C to G skips D, E, F). Following this pattern, the next letter after S in the second row would be W.
Another user noted that the number of skipped letters between the top and bottom rows increases by one each time. The correct answer, confirmed by multiple commenters, is W.
The brainteaser, described as 'just for fun,' highlights how simple puzzles can boost cognitive abilities and concentration.
