Letter connections

LE is to VO as XQ is to ........

We think the answer is HA as it is adding 10, but the correct answer is JC. Not sure how?? :(

For long and 2 letter codes [C and U] my children do not start the section until they have set the alphabet up for mirrors. They draw a line between N and M [the mirror] then put 5 on top of E and V [to help with the counting of letters away from the mirror.]

In doing so, it reminds them that there could be some mirror/inverted mirrors included.
