Select the option that is related to the fifth letter-cluster in the same way as the second letter-cluster is related to the first letter-cluster and the fourth letter-cluster is related to the third letter-cluster.
GENTLE:VOGMVT::FACIAL:OZRXZU::MAKEUP:?
- AKFVQZN
- BKFVPYN
- CKFVPZN
- DKFWPZN
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's study the pattern in GENTLE→VOGMVT:
Let's reverse the word GENTLE→ELTNEG.
Now find the opposite letters of ELTNEG:
E↔V
L↔O
T↔G
N↔M
E↔V
G↔T
The resulting string is VOGMVT.
So the logic is: Reverse the word, then take the opposite alphabet pairs.
Let's verify with FACIAL→OZRXZU:
Reverse of FACIAL=LAICAF
Opposite pairs of LAICAF:
L↔O
A↔Z
I↔R
C↔X
A↔Z
F↔U
This gives OZRXZU, which matches perfectly.
Now apply the same logic to MAKEUP:
Reverse of MAKEUP=PUEKAM
Opposite pairs of PUEKAM:
P↔K
U↔F
E↔V
K↔P
A↔Z
M↔N
The resulting string is KFVPZN.
Let's reverse the word GENTLE→ELTNEG.
Now find the opposite letters of ELTNEG:
E↔V
L↔O
T↔G
N↔M
E↔V
G↔T
The resulting string is VOGMVT.
So the logic is: Reverse the word, then take the opposite alphabet pairs.
Let's verify with FACIAL→OZRXZU:
Reverse of FACIAL=LAICAF
Opposite pairs of LAICAF:
L↔O
A↔Z
I↔R
C↔X
A↔Z
F↔U
This gives OZRXZU, which matches perfectly.
Now apply the same logic to MAKEUP:
Reverse of MAKEUP=PUEKAM
Opposite pairs of PUEKAM:
P↔K
U↔F
E↔V
K↔P
A↔Z
M↔N
The resulting string is KFVPZN.
