Question : Directions: In a certain code language, TURNIP is coded as VNRUWU, and DAIKON is coded as TTOLCE. How will RADISH be coded in the same language?
Option 1: NXMGCS
Option 2: NXNHCS
Option 3: MXNHCS
Option 4: CYMGDP
Correct Answer: NXMGCS
Solution :
Given:
TURNIP is coded as VNRUWU, and DAIKON is coded as TTOLCE.
Add consecutive natural numbers to the place value of each letter of the TURNIP and then reverse them, to get the required code –
T + 1 = U; U + 2 = W; R + 3 = U; N + 4 = R; I + 5 = N; P + 6 = V
UWURNV→VNRUWU
Thus, TURNIP is coded as VNRUWU.
D + 1 = E; A + 2 = C; I + 3 = L; K + 4 = O; O + 5 = T; N + 6 = T
ECLOTT→TTOLCE
Thus, DAIKON is coded as TTOLCE.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for RADISH→
R + 1 = S; A + 2 = C; D + 3 = G; I + 4 = M; S + 5 = X; H + 6 = N
SCGMXN→NXMGCS
Thus, RADISH is coded as NXMGCS. Hence, the first option is correct.
