    B MJLJHJDJ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C HJMJLJDJ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D HJLJJDJM Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The logic followed here is: The 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th letters are replaced by their 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th succeeding letters respectively and the 2nd, 4th, 6th and 8th letters are replaced by their 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th preceding letters respectively. P + 2 = R L – 2 = J A + 3 = D T – 3 = Q F + 4 = J O – 4 = K R + 5 = W M – 5 = I Similarly, F + 2 = H L – 2 = J A + 3 = D M – 3 = J I + 4 = M N – 4 = J G + 5 = L O – 5 = J
