The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

To solve the problem of determining how 'PROMOTION' is encoded as 'QSP89' in the given code language, we need to understand the logic used for conversion. Let's analyze: 

  • The word 'PROMOTION' consists of eight characters. If we break down 'QSP89', it seems like the encoding includes character transformations and numerical elements.
  • Considering the letters 'P' and 'R':
LetterNext Letter in Sequence
PQ
RS
  • The pattern shows that each letter in 'PROMOTION' is transformed to the next letter in the alphabet for the 'Q' and 'S' characters.
  • The numbers '89' from 'QSP89' don't correspond to alphabetic movement and likely remain as they are due to the 'TION' ending.

To write 'DEMOTION' similarly:

  • Transform each letter to the next letter in the alphabet:
LetterNext Letter
DE
EF
MN
OP
  • Retain '89' since the transformation logic seems consistent for the sequence 'TION' as in 'PROMOTION'.

Follow this logic:

  • 'D' becomes 'E'
  • 'E' becomes 'F'

The encoded representation of 'DEMOTION' becomes 'EF89'. Thus, the answer is:

EF89
