Identify the pattern.
In the given analogy, each letter’s position in the alphabet is subtracted from 26 (the total number of letters in the English alphabet).
M is the 13th letter →
So, 26 - 13 = 13
O is the 15th letter;
So, 26 - 15 = 11
This matches the given numbers 13 11 for “MO”
Then, Apply the same rule to HJ
H is the 8th letter →
So, 26 − 8 = 18.
J is the 10th letter →
26 - 10 = 16.
Result
Therefore, HJ corresponds to 18 16.
And the Final Answer is HJ : 18 16.

There is a printing mistake in the question.
O not 11 is 15
So, the answer is option 3
The correct explanation is;
M=13&o=15.
H=8&j=10.
So, the Answer is option 3.
O not 11 is 15
So, the answer is option 3
The correct explanation is;
M=13&o=15.
H=8&j=10.
So, the Answer is option 3.

Opposite alphabet - 1.
M = 14 - 1 = 13.
O = 12 - 1 = 11.
H = 19 - 1 = 18.
J = 17 - 1 = 16.
M = 14 - 1 = 13.
O = 12 - 1 = 11.
H = 19 - 1 = 18.
J = 17 - 1 = 16.

Subtract the position of the number from the alphabet number.
M = 26 - 13 = 13.
O = 26 - 15 = 11.
Similarly.
H = 26 - 8 = 18.
J = 26 - 10 = 16.
So, the right answer is Option. B.
M = 26 - 13 = 13.
O = 26 - 15 = 11.
Similarly.
H = 26 - 8 = 18.
J = 26 - 10 = 16.
So, the right answer is Option. B.

MO : 13 11
HJ : ? ?
Answer = total no of alphabets - position of the alphabet.
i.e. 13 = 26 - 13.
11 = 26 - 15.
So, the solution is;
26 - 8 = 18.
26 - 10 = 16.
Ans is B = 18 16.
HJ : ? ?

MO:13 11
HJ: ? ?
Ans= total no of alphabets - position of the alphabet.
i.e. 13=26-13
11=26-15.
So, the solution is;
26 - 8 = 18.
26 - 10 = 16.
Ans is B=18 16
HJ: ? ?
Ans= total no of alphabets - position of the alphabet.
i.e. 13=26-13
11=26-15.
So, the solution is;
26 - 8 = 18.
26 - 10 = 16.
Ans is B=18 16
