Answer: (D) 

Explanation: 

Lets see the pattern in first digit of each pair. 

S – 6 = M 

M – 6 = G 

G – 6 = A 

so the first alphabet of all variable is S,M,G,A 

Now, Let’s see the pattern in second digit of each pair. 

L + 3 = O 

O + 3 = R 

R + 3 = U 

so the last alphabet of all variable is L,O,R,U 

Hence Last pair will be AU.
