RED : RFE :: TOP:?
TPQ
Pattern: Analyze RED to RFE
We are given the first pair RED : RFE. Let's examine the relationship between these two words based on their letter positions in the English alphabet.
- The first letter 'R' remains unchanged.
- The second letter 'E' changes to 'F'. 'F' is the next letter after 'E' in the alphabet.
- The third letter 'D' changes to 'E'. 'E' is the next letter after 'D' in the alphabet.
The pattern observed is: Keep the first letter the same, and advance the second and third letters by one position in the alphabetical sequence.
Logic: Alphabetical Advancement
The logic identified is a simple shift cipher applied selectively. Specifically:
- Position 1: No change.
- Position 2: +1 position in the alphabet.
- Position 3: +1 position in the alphabet.
Apply: TOP to ?
Now, we apply this same logic to the word TOP:
- T: The first letter 'T' stays the same.
- O: The second letter 'O' advances by one position to become 'P' (O + 1 = P).
- P: The third letter 'P' advances by one position to become 'Q' (P + 1 = Q).
Therefore, following the established pattern, TOP transforms into TPQ.
Comparing this result with the given options, we find that TPQ matches option 2.
