Solution

The correct option is B X
We number each of the letters of the English alphabet according to their positions as shown below.


Therefore, we get:
D = 4
H = 8
L = 12
P = 16
T = 20

We can see from the corresponding numbers that the sequence represents the multiples of 4. Thus, the next number in the sequence should be 24.

The letter corresponding to number 24 is X.

Hence, the last letter in the given sequence is X.
