✓ Correct answer: c) FSZ
ExplanationAccording to the question : IMPLORE is coded as GKNJMPC It has been coded with some logic and we have to find it and code HUB using the same logic.Logic : Subtraction of 2 from the place value of each letter of first word = letters of the second word.IMPLORE = GKNJMPC I = 9 and 9 - 2 = 7 i.e, G M = 13 and 13 - 2 = 11 i.e, K P = 16 and 16 - 2 = 14 i.e, N L = 12 and 12 - 2 = 10 i.e, J O = 15 and 15 - 2 = 13 i.e, M R = 18 and 18 - 2 = 16 i.e, P E = 5 and 5 - 2 = 3 i.e, C HUB= ?H = 8 and 8 - 2 = 6 i.e, F U = 21 and 21 - 2 = 19 i.e, S B = 2 and 2 - 2 = 26 i.e, Z ( As Reversing 1 step from A means last letter of alphabetical series i.e, 26) So , the code for HUB is FSZ .Hence , “ FSZ “ is the correct answer.
