Identify the gap between the first and second term groups (BDF to HJL) to determine the shift value, then apply that same shift to the next group (NPR).
Identify the gap between the first and second term groups (BDF to HJL) to determine the shift value, then apply that same shift to the next group (NPR).
Analyze the relationship between BDF and HJL
B(2) to H(8) is +6. D(4) to J(10) is +6. F(6) to L(12) is +6. The constant shift is +6 for all positions.
Apply the shift to NPR
N(14)+6 = 20(T); P(16)+6 = 22(V); R(18)+6 = 24(X). The resulting sequence is TVX.
B: SUW has a shift of +5, +5, +5 from NPR, which is incorrect. C: VXZ does not follow the +6 increment pattern. D: RTX does not maintain the consistent +6 shift for each letter.
A is correct because applying a +6 position shift to each letter of NPR (14, 16, 18) results in TVX (20, 22, 24).
In letter analogies, always write the numeric value (A=1, B=2, ..., Z=26) above each letter to instantly visualize shifts and common differences.
