Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. PUJUCCQY

The logic used here is:

WOODLAND : ZIRXOUQX

W + 3 = Z, O - 6 = I, O + 3 = R, D - 6 = X, L + 3 = O, A - 6 = U, N + 3 = Q, D - 6 = X

PERIODIC : SYUCRXLW

P + 3 = S, E - 6 = Y, R + 3 = U, I - 6 = C, O + 3 = R, D - 6 = X, I + 3 = L, C - 6 = W

Similarly,

MAGAZINE : ?

M + 3 = P, A - 6 = U, G + 3 = J, A - 6 = U, Z + 3 = C, I - 6 = C, N + 3 = Q, E - 6 = Y
