Correct Answer:
Option B —
OPJTTJN
Let's break down the logic of this coding puzzle step-by-step to see exactly how "MISSION" is transformed.
The pattern relies on two simple steps: reversing the word and then shifting each letter forward by one position in the alphabet.
Step 1: Analyze "VISION"
First, we reverse the entire word from back to front:
VISION becomes NOISIV
Next, we move each letter forward by one step in the alphabet (+1):
N goes to O
O goes to P
I goes to J
S goes to T
I goes to J (Note: The question prompt has a common typographical error here, using 'I' instead of 'J')
V goes to W
This gives us the code OPJTIW.
Step 2: Apply to "MISSION"
Now, we apply this exact same rule to the word MISSION.
Reverse the word: MISSION becomes NOISSIM
Shift each letter forward by one step:
N becomes O
O becomes P
I becomes J
S becomes T
S becomes T
I becomes J
M becomes N
When we put those letters together, we get OPJTTJN.
