First find relation between first ratio and then link it with the first word of another ratio and accordingly find the answer. It is just previous alphabet of the first word of first ratio.

We need to recognize the pattern.
First see "PSVY"
We can also write it this way - P2S2V2Y (insert nos. which symbolizes the no. of letters which are left out).
(B2E1G3K : A2D1F3J - In this pair the ratio on both sides is 2:1:3 )
for our given problem the ration is 2:2:2 so now we need to look for the set which has combination as 2:2:2.
i.e we can see that after P two letters (Q and R )are overlooked and third letter S is written.In the same way after S two letters (T,U )are overlooked and third letter V is written.Similarly after V we omit two letters (W AND X)and get Y.
SO For our answer we try to identify this pattern and find ORUX as right answer.

@Priyanshu.
E+2 = G.
G+12 = S.
J+14 = X.
E+2 = G.
G+12 = S.
J+14 = X.

Oh, sure before the letter. BEGK - ADFJ similarly PSVY - ORUX.
