KSNJ is related to MUPL in a certain way based on the English alphabetical order. In the same way, NVQM is related to PXSO. To which of the following is EMHD related, following the same logic?
GOJF
GOFJ
OGJF
OGFJ
GOJF
Apply the +2, +2, +2, +2 shift to every letter consistently to find the matching pair.
Apply the +2, +2, +2, +2 shift to every letter consistently to find the matching pair.
Analyze the pattern
Look at KSNJ to MUPL: K(11)+2=M(13), S(19)+2=U(21), N(14)+2=P(16), J(10)+2=L(12). The pattern is +2 for each letter position.
Verify the pattern with the second pair
Look at NVQM to PXSO: N(14)+2=P(16), V(22)+2=X(24), Q(17)+2=S(19), M(13)+2=O(15). The +2 pattern holds for all letters.
Apply pattern to target word
Apply +2 to EMHD: E(5)+2=G(7), M(13)+2=O(15), H(8)+2=J(10), D(4)+2=F(6). The resulting word is GOJF.
B: GOFJ shifts the last two letters incorrectly (D+2 is F, H+2 is J; option B swapped them). C: OGJF has incorrect first and second letters (E+2 is G, M+2 is O). D: OGFJ has incorrect letter placements for every character except the last.
A is correct because applying a consistent +2 shift to each letter of EMHD results in the word GOJF.
In letter analogy questions, always convert letters to their numerical positions (A=1, B=2...) to see the arithmetic relationship quickly.
