    A KFHQZQ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B KZQFHQ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C FHKZQQ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D KHQZQF Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    From the left end, the letters are replaced alternately with the third succeeding letter and the immediately preceding letter as per the English alphabetical order. For ‘MAGIC’ M + 3 = P A – 1 = Z G + 3 = J I – 1 = H C + 3 = F For ‘STRONG’ T + 3 = W O – 1 = N P + 3 = S P – 1 = O E + 3 = H R – 1 = Q. For ‘HANGER’ H + 3 = K A – 1 = Z N + 3 = Q G – 1 = F E + 3 = H R – 1 = Q.
