If in a certain language, NOIDA is coded as OPJEB, what will DELHI be coded as in that language?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. EFMIJ
- D(+1) = E
- E(+1) = F
- L(+1) = M
- H(+1) = I
- I(+1) = J
- E(+1) = F
- L(+1) = M
- H(+1) = I
- I(+1) = J
- Step 1: Observe the shift: N(+1)=O, O(+1)=P, I(+1)=J, D(+1)=E, A(+1)=B. Every letter advances by .
- Step 2: Apply to DELHI:
- Step 3: The coded word is EFMIJ.
Answer
