1. A. HAPDLQH
2. B. HADPLQH (Correct answer)
3. C. HAHPLDQ
4. D. GBQDVWB

Correct Answer

Option B — HADPLQH

Detailed Solution & Explanation

The correct answer is HADPLQH.

Key Points

• The rule is a straight +3 shift on every letter: C→F, O→R, U→X, N→Q, T→W, R→U, Y→B (wrapping past Z).
• Applying +3 to each letter in order:
  • E→H, X→A (X, Y, Z, A), A→D, M→P, I→L, N→Q, E→H
• That gives H A D P L Q H.
• Options A and C use the same seven letters with two of them swapped, so confirm the order letter by letter rather than matching the letter set.

Additional Information

• Coding by a constant shift is the commonest form; check the first two or three letters, then confirm the rule holds across the whole word before applying it.
• Shifts wrap around the alphabet, so X + 3 = A and Y + 3 = B. Working in positions (A=1 … Z=26) and subtracting 26 where needed avoids miscounts.
• Other coding families worth knowing: reverse coding (A↔Z, B↔Y), positional-value coding, and shifts that alternate between letters.
