Correct Answer: MZRLJB
Solution :
Given:
GINGER is coded as LZCKGF and GARLIC is coded as WDHOYF.
Reverse the letters of GINGER and then subtract natural numbers from 6 to 1 in decreasing order to the positional value of each letter, to obtain the required code –
GINGER ⇒ REGNIG; R – 6 = L; E – 5 = Z; G – 4 = C; N – 3 = K; I – 2 = G; G – 1 = F
Thus, GINGER is coded as LZCKGF.
GARLIC ⇒ CILRAG; C – 6 = W; I – 5 = D; L – 4 = H; R – 3 = O; A – 2 = Y; G – 1 = F
Thus, GARLIC is coded as WDHOYF.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for CLOVES→SEVOLC; S – 6 = M; E – 5 = Z; V – 4 = R; O – 3 = L; L – 2 = J; C – 1 = B
Thus, CLOVES is coded as MZRLJB. Hence the second option is correct.
