Answer 2

The answer for MAPLE would be NZQKF

Explanation:

• In the given question we need to find the correct answer for the word MAPLE by getting hints from the answers given for the words such as MANGO and APPLE.
• The answer given for MANGO is NZOFP and that for APPLE is BOQKF.
• The hint is that the first letter of the answer is the letter that comes after the first letter of the word. For example, the first letter of the word MANGO(also of MAPLE) is M and the letter after M is N so N becomes the first letter of the answer.
• Now, the second letter of the answer is the letter that is present before the letter used in the taken word. For example, the second letter of the word MANGO (also of MAPLE) is A but A is the first letter of the alphabets so there is no letter before this, therefore, they have used the letter Z, keeping that in mind we have used the letter Z for our answer too.
• And the selection of taking the next letter and then the previous letter goes on till the final letter of the word.
• So using the given hint we have answered for the word MAPLE. The letter after M is N, the letter before A is Z, the letter after P is Q, the letter before L is K, and the letter after E is F.
