u + 1 = v.
V + 1 = W.
W + 1 = X.
X + 1 = Y.

32 - 3 = 29.
29 - 3 = 26.
26 - 3 = 23.
23 - 3 = 20.

So, its like U32 , V29 , W26 , X23 , Y20.

Take alphabetical order u, v, w, x, y, z.

And comes to the no's.
32-3 = 29 ----> V.
29-3 = 26 -----> w.
26-3 = 23 ------> x.
23-3 = 20 -----> y.

Alphabets starting from u and ends in y and similarly, the number starts with 32 and it decreases by 3.

Form the left out one is w and 29-3=26 so the answer is ww26.

U 32 V 29 __ X 23 Y 20.

ADD 1 LETTER TO EVERY SINGLE ALPHABET AND SUBTRACT 2 FROM EVERY NUM.

Increase the alphabets by one unit and decrease the numeric by 3 units. That's it.

Separate the alphabets and numbers now check the alphabets and its order after you its we after we its "w". Now check the numbers 32-3 = 29, 29-3 = "26", So the answer would be W26. Its simple.
