XPNC
Calculate the difference between corresponding letters of the given pair; the pattern here is -2, -9, -2, -2 for each position.
Calculate the difference between corresponding letters of the given pair; the pattern here is -2, -9, -2, -2 for each position.
Analyze the transformation pattern
Map JRYH to HPWF: J(10)-2=H(8), R(18)-9=I? No, checking: J(10) to H(8) is -2. R(18) to P(16) is -2. Y(25) to W(23) is -2. H(8) to F(6) is -2. The pattern is a consistent -2 shift for all letters.
Verify pattern with second pair
Map VGLW to TEJU: V(22)-2=T(20), G(7)-2=E(5), L(12)-2=J(10), W(23)-2=U(21). The pattern -2 applies to all letters.
Apply pattern to target
Apply -2 to ZRPE: Z(26)-2=X(24), R(18)-2=P(16), P(16)-2=N(14), E(5)-2=C(3). The result is XPNC.
A: CXNP is wrong because the third letter should be N, not N. B: PCXN is wrong as the letter order is scrambled. D: NCXP is incorrect as it shifts the positions rather than applying the constant -2 rule to each letter independently.
C is correct because applying a constant shift of -2 to each letter of ZRPE results in XPNC.
In letter analogy questions, always check if the shift is constant across all letters before looking for complex inter-letter dependencies.
