    A OYUHIP Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B OYVHJQ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C PYUHIP Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D OXVGJP Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The logic followed here is: The 1st, 3rd and 5th letters are written as their 2nd, 3rd and 4th succeeding letters respectively and the 2nd, 4th and 6th letters are written as their 2nd, 3rd and 4th preceding letters respectively as per the English alphabetical series. For 'FLOWER': F (+2) = H, L (-2) = J, O (+3) = R, W (-3) = T, E (+ 4) = I, R (-4) = N .So, 'FLOWER' is coded as 'HJRTIN'. For 'BRIGHT': B (+2) = D, R (-2) = P, I (+3) = L, G (-3) = D, H (+4) = L, T (-4) = P. So, 'BRIGHT' is coded as 'DPLDLP'. Similarly, For 'MARKET': M (+2) = O, A (-2) = Y, R (+3) = U, K (-3) = H, E (+4) = I, T (-4) = P. So, 'MARKET' will be coded as 'OYUHIP'.
