    A GWQGQ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B WQGGQ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C GGQQW Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D GGQWQ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The first letter is changed to the immediate succeeding letter, the second letter is changed to the second preceding letter, the third letter is changed to the third succeeding letter, the fourth letter is changed to the fourth preceding letter and so on as per the English alphabetical series. L + 1 = M A – 2 = Y P + 3 = S S – 4 = O E + 5 = J So, code for ‘LAPSE’ is ‘MYSOJ’. D + 1 = E E – 2 = C F + 3 = I I – 4 = E N + 5 = S   E – 6 = Y So, code for ‘DEFINE’ is ‘ECIESY’. F + 1 = G I – 2 = G N + 3 = Q A – 4 = W L + 5 = Q So, code for ‘ FINAL ’ is ‘ GGQWQ ’.
