ROSP is related to WTXU in a certain way based on the English alphabetical order. In the same way, TQUR is related to YVZW. To which of the following options is OLPM related, following the same logic?
QTRU
TQUR
TQRU
QTUR
TQUR
Identify the positional shift: Each letter in the source word is moved forward by a constant pattern (R+5, O+5, S+5, P+5) to get the target word.
Identify the positional shift: Each letter in the source word is moved forward by a constant pattern (R+5, O+5, S+5, P+5) to get the target word.
Analyze the relation between ROSP and WTXU
Map the alphabetical positions: R(18), O(15), S(19), P(16). Target letters are W(23), T(20), X(24), U(21). Calculation: 18+5=23, 15+5=20, 19+5=24, 16+5=21. Pattern is +5 for all letters.
Apply logic to OLPM
Positions of OLPM: O(15), L(12), P(16), M(13). Add 5 to each: 15+5=20 (T), 12+5=17 (Q), 16+5=21 (U), 13+5=18 (R). Result is TQUR.
A: QTRU has U and R swapped, C: TQRU has R and U swapped, D: QTUR is a scrambled version starting with Q.
B is correct because the logic applied to each letter of OLPM (adding 5 positions) results in TQUR.
In alphabetical coding questions, always check +n or -n patterns first as they account for over 70% of exam questions.
