The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

The encryption method shifts each letter by +3. Example: VICTORY becomes YLFWRUB: V(22)+3=Y(25); I(9)+3=L(12); C(3)+3=F(6); T(20)+3=W(23); O(15)+3=R(18); R(18)+3=U(21); Y(25)+3=B(2) (wraps around). Apply the same +3 shift to SUCCESS: S(19)+3=V(22) U(21)+3=X(24) C(3)+3=F(6) C(3)+3=F(6) E(5)+3=H(8) S(19)+3=V(22) S(19)+3=V(22). The result is VXFFHVV. This corresponds to option (2).
