TPVS is related to LHNK in a certain way based on the English alphabetical order. In the same way, WSYV is related to OKQN. To which of the following options is RNTQ related, following the same logic?
JFLI
FJLI
FJIL
JFIL
FJIL
Map letters to positions (A=1, B=2...) and identify the fixed numerical offset. The relationship is based on a consistent subtraction shift across all four positions.
Map letters to positions (A=1, B=2...) and identify the fixed numerical offset. The relationship is based on a consistent subtraction shift across all four positions.
Establish Rule
Convert letters of TPVS to their numerical positions: T=20, P=16, V=22, S=19. Comparing with LHNK (L=12, H=8, N=14, K=11), we find a constant subtraction of 8 from each letter (20-8=12, 16-8=8, 22-8=14, 19-8=11).
Apply Rule to RNTQ
Apply the -8 logic to RNTQ: R(18)-8 = J(10), N(14)-8 = F(6), T(20)-8 = L(12), Q(17)-8 = I(9). The result is JFLI.
B: FJLI has incorrect second and third letters. C: FJIL has incorrect mapping. D: JFIL has incorrect third and fourth letters.
A is correct because the transformation rule involves subtracting 8 from the alphabetical position of each letter in the input sequence, resulting in JFLI for RNTQ.
For letter coding questions, always write the numerical rank of letters (A=1, Z=26) immediately; this reveals addition/subtraction patterns instantly.
