The word that could mean "ceiling tile" is "pixnarth. ".
We know that "pixngorbl" means "ceiling fan" and "arthtusl" means "tile roof. " We can break down "pixngorbl" into "pixn" and "gorbl, " which we know mean "ceiling" and "fan belt, " respectively. Similarly, we can break down "arthtusl" into "arth" and "tusl, " which we know mean "tile" and "roof, " respectively.
To form the word for "ceiling tile, " we need to combine the words for "ceiling" and "tile. " The word "pixnarth" does just that by combining "pixn" (ceiling) and "arth" (tile).

Why gorbl+flur?
Why not Gorblf+Lur?
Why not Gor+Blflur?
Similarly, why not any other combinations?
Why not Gorblf+Lur?

It is just a comparison between imaginary words or so-called artificial language.
Nothing complex and special.

Given:
(Gorblflur means fan belt. Pixngorbl means ceiling fan. Arthtusl means tile roof).
Gorbl+Flur = Fan+Belt.
Pixn+Gorbl = Ceiling+Fan.
Arth+Tusl = Tile+Roof.
According to above equations: Pixn = Ceiling & Arth = Tile.
So the answer of "ceiling tile" = Pixnarth(Pixn+arth).
(Gorblflur means fan belt. Pixngorbl means ceiling fan. Arthtusl means tile roof).

Gorbl - fan.
Flur - belt.
Pixn - ceiling.
We can only make these 3 out so now we look at the options.
We get, only option D satisfying the first half.
