Answer:

A. JFWD

Read Explanation:

Let’s find the pattern

Step 1: NEYG → PHBI

Check letter shifts:

N → P (+2)
E → H (+3)
Y → B

Y (25) +3 = 28 → 2 (B)
G → I (+2)

Pattern:
+2, +3, +3, +2

Step 2: LAVS → NDYU

L → N (+2)
A → D (+3)
V → Y (+3)
S → U (+2)

Same pattern confirmed:
+2, +3, +3, +2

Step 3: Apply to HCTB

H → ? (+2)
C → ? (+3)
T → ? (+3)
B → ? (+2)

Now calculate:

H (8) +2 = J
C (3) +3 = F
T (20) +3 = W
B (2) +2 = D
