Correct Answer: RBHGSF
Solution :
Given:
HISTORY is written as XQNSRHI.
By reversing the order of the letters of HISTORY, we get YROTSIH.
Subtract 1 from each letter of the above-reversed letter cluster and add 1 only to the last letter –
Y – 1 = X; R – 1 = Q; O – 1 = N; T – 1 = S; S – 1 = R; I – 1 = H; H + 1 = I
Thus, HISTORY is written as XQNSRHI.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for ETHICS –
By reversing the order of the letters of ETHICS, we get SCIHTE.
Subtract 1 from each letter of the above-reversed letter cluster and add 1 only to the last letter –
S – 1 = R; C – 1 = B; I – 1 = H; H – 1 = G; T – 1 = S; E + 1 = F
So, ETHICS is written as RBHGSF. Hence, the second option is correct.
