R
S
T
U
R
Determine the constant alphabetical shift (+5 positions) between the given letter pairs and apply the same rule to the target letter.
Determine the constant alphabetical shift (+5 positions) between the given letter pairs and apply the same rule to the target letter.
Analyze the first pair (A to F)
A is the 1st letter of the alphabet and F is the 6th letter. The shift is plus 5 positions.
Verify with the second pair (K to P)
K is the 11th letter and P is the 16th letter, confirming a consistent plus 5 shift rule.
Apply the rule to M
M is the 13th letter of the alphabet. Adding a shift of plus 5 gives 13 plus 5 equals 18, which is the letter R.
B: S is incorrect as it represents position 19. C: T is incorrect as it represents position 20. D: U is incorrect as it represents position 21.
A is correct because shifting the letter M by plus 5 positions in the alphabet results in R.
