The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Detect the coding rule
C $\to$ X, L $\to$ O, E $\to$ V, V $\to$ E, E $\to$ V, R $\to$ I.
This is the Atbash (mirror) cipher: each letter maps to its mirror with respect to A–Z (A↔Z, B↔Y, ..., M↔N).
Step 2: Apply the rule to "SMART"
S→H,\; M→N,\; A→Z,\; R→I,\; T→G
Therefore, SMART → HNZIG.
