In a code each letter is replaced by the letter 5 places later in the alphabet (A becomes F). What is the code for CAT?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. HFY
- Step 1: Move every letter forward by 5. Step 2. CAT becomes HFY. Answer: HFY. Why not the others: IGZ is what you get if you shift by the wrong number or direction. GEX is what you get if you shift by the wrong number or direction. XVO is what you get if you shift by the wrong number or direction.
