Correct Answer :

Option A

WTJQ

Solution :

The correct answer is WTJQ.

Let us analyze the relationship between the letter clusters based on the positions of the letters in the standard English alphabetical order:

1. First Pair: AQLZ to SIDR
Let us find the position of each letter in the alphabet:
- A = 1, Q = 17, L = 12, Z = 26
- S = 19, I = 9, D = 4, R = 18

Now, let us examine the pattern between the corresponding position values:
- 1st letter: A (1) + 18 = 19 (S)
- 2nd letter: Q (17) - 8 = 9 (I)
- 3rd letter: L (12) - 8 = 4 (D)
- 4th letter: Z (26) - 8 = 18 (R)

2. Second Pair: CPDV to UHVN
Let us verify the pattern using the second given pair:
- C = 3, P = 16, D = 4, V = 22
- U = 21, H = 8, V = 22, N = 14

Applying the same letter shifts:
- 1st letter: C (3) + 18 = 21 (U)
- 2nd letter: P (16) - 8 = 8 (H)
- 3rd letter: D (4) - 8 = -4 ≡ 22 (V) (in cyclic alphabet order: 4 + 26 - 8 = 22)
- 4th letter: V (22) - 8 = 14 (N)

3. Applying the same logic to EBRY:
Let us find the position of each letter in EBRY:
- E = 5, B = 2, R = 18, Y = 25

Now apply the logic (+18 to the 1st letter, -8 to the remaining letters):
- 1st letter: E (5) + 18 = 23 (W)
- 2nd letter: B (2) - 8 = -6 ≡ 20 (T) (in cyclic alphabet order: 2 + 26 - 8 = 20)
- 3rd letter: R (18) - 8 = 10 (J)
- 4th letter: Y (25) - 8 = 17 (Q)

Combining the resulting letters gives WTJQ.
