Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Correct answer: AMJXVS
Explanation –
Rule: Move the 1st letter 1 step backward, the 2nd letter 2 steps backward, the 3rd letter 3 steps backward, and so on.
B -> A (B back 1 = A)
O -> M (O back 2 = M)
M -> J (M back 3 = J)
B -> X (B back 4 = 2 - 4 = -2, wrap around to 24 = X)
A -> V (A back 5 = 1 - 5 = -4, wrap around to 22 = V)
Y -> S (Y back 6 = 25 - 6 = 19 = S)
Therefore, BOMBAY codes as AMJXVS.
