In a coding cipher, if 'CIVIL' is encoded as 'FLYLO', how is 'STATE' encoded using the same shift rule?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. VWDWH
- Step 1: Compare CIVIL with FLYLO: C to F, I to L, V to Y, I to L, L to O. Every letter moves 3 places forward in the alphabet. Step 2. Apply the same +3 shift to STATE: S to V, T to W, A to D, T to W, E to H. Answer: VWDWH. Why not the others: UVCUG is a +2 shift; TWBUF mixes different shifts; WXEVI is a +4 shift.
