CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

G is 7th and T is 20th $(7 + 20 = 27)$ , H is 8th and S is 19th $(8 + 19 = 27)$ : each letter is replaced by its opposite, in the same order.
Opposite of K (11th) is P (16th); opposite of L (12th) is O (15th). So KL : PO matches.
KL : OP has the right letters in reverse order; KL : QP starts one letter past the opposite.

Worth noting

In GH : TS the second group looks 'backwards' (T before S), which is exactly what opposites of consecutive letters look like. Reading it as a reversal leads to KL : OP.
