If ART is encoded as BQU, then TAR is encoded as

Result
Your answer:  ·  Correct: A

Explanation

The encoding follows a pattern of alternating alphabetical shifts based on the position of the letter in the word:

  • 1st Letter: Shifted +1 (A + 1 = B)
  • 2nd Letter: Shifted -1 (R - 1 = Q)
  • 3rd Letter: Shifted +1 (T + 1 = U)

Applying this same (+1, -1, +1) pattern to the word TAR:

  • T + 1 = U
  • A - 1 = Z (Moving one step backward from 'A' wraps around the alphabet to 'Z')
  • R + 1 = S

Combining these results, TAR is encoded as UZS. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
