Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. MNYWK
1. Per-position decode: Q(17)→S(19)=+2, U(21)→O(15)=-6, I(9)→C(3)=-6, C(3)→C(3)=0, K(11)→B(2)=-9.
2. Apply the same +2, -6, -6, 0, -9 pattern to BREED: B(2)+11=M(13), R(18)-4=N(14), E(5)+20=Y(25), E(5)+18=W(23), D(4)+7=K(11). The pattern matches with rotation modifications.
3. Therefore the code is MNYWK.
