This question is very technical and logical to understand, however,

Example: Z+11->K, R+11->C,Y+11->J,Q+11->B =>KCJB.

When you solve for " ZRYQ ", you move forward 11 times, if you want to solve for " PWOV ", you move backwards 11 times with that you get the right answer to be " ELDK "

P - 11 =E, W-11=L., O - 11 =D, V-11 =K

I hope this is helpful.

I have a better idea to solve this. Since my method would consumes shorter time than this,

Example: Z+11->K, R+11->C,Y+11->J,Q+11->B =>KCJB.

Similarly,
P+11->A,W+11->H,O+11->Z,V+11->G =>AHZG.

But answer is not in choices it is correct or wrong.

1-a j s zryq-kcjb (move 6 steps in the backward direction and then the alphabet to the right hand side)

2-b k t pwov-ahrg(if you are on the right-hand side, choose the letter present at the L.H.S)
3-c l u
4-d m v
5-e n w
6-f o x
7-g p y
8-h q z
9-i r.

Z-26 R-18 K-11 J-10 P-16 O-15
Y-25 Q-17 C-3 B-2 W-23 V-22

Here the difference is for the alternative letters,

Similarly in options;
ELDK follows this, so, it will be the answer.

Z-26 R-18 Y-24 Q-17.
K-11 C-3 J-10 B-2.

From this, we have another logic as well ie;
Z is the opposite of a and we got b as a+1.
Similarly, I+1, B+1, J+1.

So, using this logic we will get "FMEL" as the answer as well.

Z-R difference is 11
R-C difference is 11
Y-J difference is 11
Q-B difference is 11

In a similar way, PWOV- GET THE LETTER WHICH LIES AT THE DIFFERENCE OF 11
THEN YOU'LL FIND. (ELOK) which is the correct answer.

If you see ZRYQ, the difference between ZY and RQ is of 6 alphabets similarly for KCJB.

But for PWOV the difference between PO and WV is 5 alphabets. So, only ELDK satisfies that.

@ALL, it can resolve by its options only. This is very easy.

Only C option have the same tendency of the reverse count in the alphabet.

PRIYA said:   8 years ago
Guess it is very simple,

As ZRYQ: Z +10 K, R +10 C, Y +10 J, Q+10 B.

Similarly PWOV : P -10 E, W -10 L, O -10 D, V -10 K.
