Correct Answer: MVGIUVSU
Solution :
Given:
LOVING is coded as HOJWPM, and EAGLE is coded as FMHBF.
Reverse the letters of LOVING, and then add 1 to the place value of each letter, to obtain the required code –
Reverse the letters of LOVING→GNIVOL
Now, add 1 to the reversed letters→G + 1 = H; N + 1 = O; I + 1 = J; V + 1 = W; O + 1 = P; L + 1 = M
So, LOVING is coded as HOJWPM.
And, EAGLE is coded as FMHBF –
Reverse the letters of EAGLE→ELGAE
Now, add 1 to the reversed letters→E + 1 = F; L + 1 = M; G + 1 = H; A + 1 = B; E + 1 = F
So, EAGLE is coded as FMHBF.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for TRUTHFUL –
Reverse the letters of TRUTHFUL→LUFHTURT
Now, add 1 to the reversed letters→L + 1 = M; U + 1 = V; F + 1 = G; H + 1 = I; T + 1 = U; U + 1 = V; R + 1 = S; T + 1 = U
So, TRUTHFUL is coded as MVGIUVSU. Hence, the third option is correct.
