Question : Directions: In a certain code language, DOING is written as BQTOV, and ZEBRA is written as FAAKB. How will STORM be written in that language?
Option 1: PETBK
Option 2: MKYTS
Option 3: PRYSK
Option 4: MLNKP
Correct Answer: MLNKP
Solution :
Given:
DOING is written as BQTOV, and ZEBRA is written as FAAKB.
Add 5 in the first two letters and add 2 in the next three letters of opposite letters of DOING to obtain the required code –
D → W + 5 = B, O → L + 5 = Q, I → R + 2 = T, N → M + 2 = O, G → T + 2 = V
Thus, DOING is coded as BQTOV.
And in, ZEBRA is written as FAAKB –
Z → A + 5 = F, E → V + 5 = A, B → Y + 2 = A, R → I + 2 = K, A → Z + 2 = B
Thus, ZEBRA is coded as FAAKB.
Similarly, by following the same pattern for STORM –
S → H + 5 = M, T → G + 5 = L, O → L + 2 = N, R → I + 2 = K, M → N + 2 = P
Thus, STORM is written as MLNKP in the code language. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
