If MOUSE is related to PRXVH in a certain way, then in the same way, LIGHT is related to OLJWK. To which of the following options is TABLE related?
WDEOH
WDFOH
WDEOI
WDEOK
WDEOH
Observe the pattern by checking the first letter: M (13) to P (16) is +3; L (12) to O (15) is +3; T (20) + 3 is W (23). All options except C and D match the first letter.

Analyze the MOUSE to PRXVH pattern
M(13)+3=P(16), O(15)+3=R(18), U(21)+3=X(24), S(19)+3=V(22), E(5)+3=H(8). The rule is +3 shift for each letter.
Verify the LIGHT to OLJWK pattern
L(12)+3=O(15), I(9)+3=L(12), G(7)+3=J(10), H(8)+3=K(11), T(20)+3=W(23). Note: The question says LIGHT maps to OLJWK; verifying the mapping: L+3=O, I+3=L, G+3=J, H+3=K, T+3=W. The logic holds consistently as +3 shift.
Apply logic to TABLE
T(20)+3=W(23), A(1)+3=D(4), B(2)+3=E(5), L(12)+3=O(15), E(5)+3=H(8). The resulting word is WDEOH.
B is incorrect because it gives WDFOH instead of WDEOH. C is incorrect because it gives WDEOI instead of WDEOH. D is incorrect because it gives WDEOK instead of WDEOH.
A is correct because every letter in the word TABLE shifted forward by 3 positions in the alphabet results in WDEOH.
When faced with letter analogies, always write the numeric positions of the first two letters; if the shift is constant, apply it to the whole word immediately to save time.
