Look at the positional movement of each letter independently from the first term to the second term (D to E, G to H, I to K) and apply the exact same shift to the third term.
Look at the positional movement of each letter independently from the first term to the second term (D to E, G to H, I to K) and apply the exact same shift to the third term.
Analyze First Pair Relationship
Compare the letters of DGI to EHK: D changes to E (+1), G changes to H (+1), and I changes to K (+2). The pattern of shifts is +1, +1, +2.
Apply Pattern to Target Term
Apply the +1, +1, +2 rule to the letters of MPU: M + 1 = N, P + 1 = Q, and U + 2 = W.
Verify Result Against Options
The resulting letters are N, Q, and W, forming the combination OQW, which matches Option B.
A: NQV is wrong because the third letter increases by +1 instead of +2. C: NRV is wrong because the second and third letters have incorrect shifts. D: NQU is wrong because the third letter does not change.
B is correct because applying the letter transformation rule of +1, +1, +2 from DGI to EHK onto MPU yields OQW.
Always verify positional difference values independently for each letter position rather than assuming a uniform shift across the entire word.
