In a certain coded language 'BATES' is coded as 'EESBN' and 'OUSTS' is coded as 'RYRQN'. How will 'TALES' be coded in the same code language?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
Just as:
BATES → EESBN
B +3 = E
A +4 = E
T -1 = S
E -1 = B
S -5 = N
And:
OUSTS → RYRQN
O +3 = R
U +4 = Y
S -1 = R
T -1 = Q
S -5 = N
Similarly:
TALES
T +3 = W
A +4 = E
L -1 = K
E -1 = B
S -5 = N
Final Answer: (D) WEKBN
