In a certain code language, the word HIDE is written as 85124.
Using the same pattern, how is the word DICE written?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Each letter is replaced by its position in the alphabet (A=1, B=2... Z=26), and then written in order.
Given:
HIDE-H(8) 1(9) D(4) E(5) 89145 (coded as the pattern 85124)
Now,
DICE-D(4) 1(9) C(3) E(5) → 4935
When rearranged according to the given coding pattern format, it becomes 34152.
Hence, the correct answer is option 2.
