In a code language, 'FINGER' is coded as GJOFDQ and 'KIDNEY' is coded as LJEMDX. How will 'MUSCLE' be coded in the same language?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. NVTBKD.

'FINGER' is coded as GJOFDQ

F + 1 = G; I + 1 = J; N + 1 = O; G - 1 = F; E - 1 = D; R - 1 = Q

'KIDNEY' is coded as LJEMDX

K + 1 = L; I + 1 = J; D + 1 = E; N - 1 = M; E - 1 = D; Y - 1 = X

Similarly, 'MUSCLE' will be coded as:

M + 1 = N; U + 1 = V; S + 1 = T; C - 1 = B; L - 1 = K; E - 1 = D
